Ministry & Nurture is responsible for the spiritual care of our members and attenders. This includes – but is not limited to – requests for new memberships, marriages, the welcoming of new babies, caring for those who are sick or injured, and celebrating the lives of those who have died.
The function of the Ministry & Nurture Committee is both to strengthen the spiritual life of the Meeting as a whole, especially by nurturing the Meeting for Worship, and to foster the spiritual growth of individuals, by encouraging their varied gifts for ministry and service. Committee members are concerned with the welfare of any who are ill, incapacitated, troubled or in material need.
The Ministry & Nurture committee meets once a month.
Members of the 2011-2012 Ministry & Nurture committee are:
Connie Ray (Clerk)
Sandy Lyon (Assistant Clerk)
Gary Arthur
Dick Beardsley
Sybil Ann Brennan
Cheryl Demers-Holton
Walter Morris
Doris Nabors
Don Smith
Arnold Von der Porton
“. . . and watch over one another in that which is eternal, and see everyone that your words be eternal life. . . and in your meeting wait upon the Lord, and take heed of a form of words, but mind the power. . . which will keep you in all unity walking in the Spirit.”
~ George Fox, 1653
