Come one, come all: our June 17 program after Meeting for Worship will be on creating a timeline for the Grand Rapids Friends Meeting. Come help us reconstruct our corporate memory by placing yourself, your attendance, your memories of significant events in context.

May Announcements

June book discussion group:

June 8th 7pm at Betty Ford's (Heather Hills Retirement Community). We will be discussing Small is Beautiful - Economics as if people Mattered by E.F. Schumacher. This book was written in 1973 but is still timely today. It puts economics into a spiritual, wholistic and human realm. There are copies available at the library or if enough people would like we can order copies as well. Let Mark Post know.

Ministry & Nurture's focus for May is on better communication in order to better meet the needs of our members & attenders & the wider community.

Kaufman Interfaith Institute's upcoming opportunities. 

May Queries

Moderation / Humility

That no-one speak evil of another, neither judge one against another; but rather judge this, that none put a stumbling block or occasion to fall in his brother's way.
(Epistle from the Elders at Balby, 1656)

Friends, whatever ye are addicted to, the tempter will come in that thing; and when he can trouble you, then he gets advantage over you, and then you are gone. Stand still in that which is pure.
(George Fox, Journal, 1652)
