Got a story idea, photos, or a hankering to write? Know someone whose thoughts on one of these topics you would really like to hear? Drop me a line! Story ideas do not need to line up with the themes– it’s just a nice perk.

January/February: Meetinghouses
-Some meetings own them and love them, some struggle to maintain them, others wonder if they need them and if so, how to go about financing one. This will be a collection of stories about various meetinghouses in the West.

March: Friendly Gifts: Eldering & Discernment
-What does it mean to elder or to be eldered? And how does the practice of discernment deepen our lives as Friends and inform our actions?

April: Spiritual Nurture
-Hear about Intermountain Yearly Meeting’s exciting experiment in spiritual nurturing, along with other way in which Friends seek to care for their connections to each other and to the Divine.

May: Ministries of Joy
-Are Friends called to be a voice of laughter, love and joy just as much as they are called to witness the darkness in the world? Hear from Friends who work to help that of God be visible to all.
