  • Answering the Call
    Answering the Call 2011 Annual Report A Call to Celebrate “It’s about being involved in an activity that brings the Quaker faith to a broader audience. That feels like a calling to my deep center.” — Quaker Quest volunteer photograph by Colby Abazs Dear Friends, We have a lot to celebrate at FGC. While we are not immune to the ongoing financial struggles plaguing so many nonprofits, we are blessed with wonderful staff, dedicated volunteers, and a vision for a vital Religious Society of Friends. And we are making a difference, both in the lives of individual Friends and in the journeys of Quaker meetings. During the past five years, FGC’sStoking the Spiritual Fire of Quakerism campaign raised more than $6.5 million from Friends, meetings, and foundations to expand our ministries and provide innovative events, conference, and programming for Friends. Now that the campaign has run its course, we are making new decisions about how best to answer Friends’ needs in the next few years. This year’s theme, Answering the Call, reflects a strong undercurrent of activity within Friends General Conference. In myriad ways, we have been — and remain — engaged in a deep discernment process on the ways in which we will answer God’s call to serve. What is the Spirit calling us to do? What are our affiliated meetings asking from us? Who among our Religious Society will answer our call to service? FGC three years hence may look very different from the FGC of three years ago. However, our deep commitment to the spiritual vitality of our meetings and our Religious Society will always remain the same.

  • Ottawa Monthly Meeting Committees
    OTTAWA MONTHLY MEETING COMMITTEES CONTENTS Section I: How our committees work Section II: Committees, positions and terms of service Appendix: Schedule for committee reports to Monthly Meeting Changes in revised version Ottawa Meeting House 91A Fourth Avenue Ottawa, ON K1S 2L1 tel: (613) 232-9923 website: ottawa.quaker.ca First printing March 2012 Revised version January 2021 OTTAWA MONTHLY MEETING COMMITTEES "Committee work is a richly satisfying way to put Quaker principles and beliefs into practice. The work of all committees is conducted in the spirit of worship. Most Friends experience, too, a profoundly rewarding sense that they are helping to perpetuate and renew a fundamental tradition of Quakerism. At the same time, serving on a committee is for many the best way to come to know others in the Meeting and to form meaningful new friendships. Newcomers learn much from old-timers; old-timers find new sources of vitality and hope for the future of Quakerism from their close contact with newcomers to the Meeting." Blue Book of Brooklyn Meeting Committee Responsibilities, 2009 Section I: How our committees work Historic role of committees in Quaker meetings and their importance Without paid clergy, Friends from the earliest times (the second half of the seventeenth century) have supported one another in their meetings by sharing the responsibility for pastoral care and the practical needs of the community. For pastoral care, each Monthly Meeting appoints a “Meeting of Ministry and Counsel”. To attend to the practical needs of the community, the Monthly Meeting appoints committees. For example, Margaret Fell, who later married George Fox, organized relief funds for persecuted Friends, and in London a Meeting for Sufferings dealt with problems of meetings for worship and Friends in prison.

  • Minutes of Canadian Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends
    MINUTES MINUTES OF CANADIAN YEARLY MEETING OF THE RELIGIOUS SOCIETY OF FRIENDS Sunday Afternoon, August 5, 2007 Clerk: Beverly Shepard Recording Clerk: Bert Horwood Also at the table: Dale Dewar 1. Opening Worship: The meeting began with worship. The Clerk read a Sufi prayer from The Interfaith Prayer Book (p.38): Most Gracious Lord, Master, Messiah, and Saviour of humanity, We greet Thee in all humility. Thou art the First Cause and the Last Effect, The Divine Light and the Spirit of Guidance, Alpha and Omega. Thy Light is in all forms, Thy Love in all beings: In a loving mother, in a kind father, in an innocent child, in a helpful friend, and in an inspiring teacher. Allow us to recognize Thee in all Thy holy names and forms, as Rama, as Krishna, as Shiva, as Buddha, Let us know Thee as Abraham, as Solomon, as Zarathustra, as Moses, as Jesus, as Mohammed, and in many other names and forms, known and unknown to the World. We adore Thy past, Thy Presence deeply enlightens our being, and we look for Thy blessing in the future. O Messenger, Christ, Nabi, the Rasul of God! Thou whose heart constantly reacheth upwards, Thou comest on earth with a message as a dove from above when Dharma decayeth, and speakest the Word which is put into Thy mouth as the light filleth the crescent moon. Let the star of Divine Light, shining in Thy heart be reflected in the hearts of Thy devotees. May the Message of God reach far and wide, illuminating and making the whole humanity as one single brotherhood in the Fatherhood of God.

Version 3.0.1 2 Introduction to Quakers and Friends Ways Session 1 — Introduction(s) Friends in Canada meet for worship in many different places and spaces, on different days, and at different times. Still, we have in common a “settling into silence in our community”. The following quote from Faith and Practice (2011) describes one Friend’s first experience: 3.19. At first I am most aware of the beauty of this place. The warmth and sunshine of a glorious fall day; the dappled shade in which we sit. I hear the rustle of leaves, the sound of neighbours discussing their garden, a screen door banging, and the far-off shouts of children at play.

  • The Never Broken Treaty? Quaker Witness and Testimony on Aboriginal Title and Rights: What Canst Thou Say?
    The Never Broken Treaty? Quaker Witness and Testimony on Aboriginal Title and Rights: What canst thou say? The Sunderland P. Gardiner Lecture 2001 given by Sarah Chandler at Canadian Yearly Meeting Acknowledgements I wish to thank Pendle Hill Quaker Center for Study and Contemplation providing a Dewing Burd scholarship and work/study opportunity in order that I could do the necessary research for this lecture at the Pendle Hill and Swarthmore Libraries. The Lyman Fund, the Quaker Aboriginal Affairs Committee, the Home Mission and Advancement Committee of Canadian Yearly Meeting and the Lillooet Friendship Centre generously provided support for my initial research in human rights at the University of London in 1995-6. Special thanks are due also, to Friends Phyllis Fischer, Elaine Bishop and Jane Orion Smith, who have been exceptionally supportive in every way. I am grateful for the moral support of the members of Vernon Monthly Meeting and of the members of CFSC and the Quaker Aboriginal Affairs subcommittee, and especially for the support of Friend and life partner, Trevor Chandler. Most of all, I thank my friends and neighbours from the St’at’imc Nation, for without their friendship, support and patient teaching I would never have been able to undertake this work. 2 The Never Broken Treaty? Quaker Witness and Testimony on Aboriginal Title and Rights: What canst thou say? The story of a leading I can remember when I was a small child of four or five, in Denver, Colorado, in the late 1940s and early 1950s, riding with my mother in a trolley car (running on tracks in the pavement, with a ladder-like structure that attaches the car to the cables overhead).

  • Faith Based Statements on Climate Change June, 2012
    Faith Based Statements on Climate Change June, 2012 As volunteers for the Citizens Climate Lobby, we collected these statements from faith groups around the world during 2011 and early 2012. We hope readers will find them useful in urging decision makers to take action to curb climate change, which is becoming a global disaster and must be addressed without further delay. We think the quickest, fairest, most cost-effective and most efficient way to heal the climate is for the U.S. Congress to enact the carbon tax and rebate legislation proposed by the Citizens Climate Lobby. Please visit the website, www.citizensclimatelobby.org, to learn more about it, and make the free introductory phone call described there. Then please consider joining CCL and working with us. We can succeed at this, but we have no extra time to waste. Thank you.
