We were delighted to welcome nearly 30 Ffriends at meeting today, from those who have been members for decades to someone attending for the first time.

Kate shared the Cape of Hope which the Area Meeting sewing group has been working on. Someone will wear it at the Silent Vigil for Peace in London on 19th September. https://www.quaker.org.uk/events/national-silent-walking-vigil-for-peace

Believing that God can show us the way, we should maintain a strong faith, one which can affect the consciousness of others. To be able to affect the consciousness of others, we must of necessity be prepared to sacrifice ourselves, making our bodies a part of the effort.

The peacemaker's catch phrase is "self-sacrifice." If it were not for self-sacrifice there would be no peace movement. It doesn't mean that everyone should sacrifice his or her life. If we pray and our efforts are still insufficient, God will help. What is important is not what we do but what God does through us.
