ALL ARE WELCOME TO COME to our meeting on every Sunday 10.30-11.30
@ Friends Meeting House, Rosemary Street, Mansfield, NG19 6AB (next to Mansfield Civic Centre).

Come alone.
Come with friends.
Come with children.
Come with family.
Come with loved ones.
Come sick.
Come healthy.
Come rich, poor in any and every sense.
Come atheist, agnostic, or of any faith.
Just come and know you will always be welcomed by us.

In the meantime consider this quote from Quaker Advices and Queries
10. Come regularly to meeting for worship even when you are angry, depressed, tired or spiritually cold. In the silence ask for and accept the prayerful support of others joined with you in worship. Try to find a spiritual wholeness which encompasses suffering as well as thankfulness and joy. Prayer, springing from a deep place in the heart, may bring healing and unity as nothing else can. Let meeting for worship nourish your whole life.

If you are a new attender at a Quaker meeting: what was your experience when you walked in the door of your first Quaker meeting? Could you easily see where to go? Were the nametags easy to find? How did you know when to whisper, and when to speak up, in a new space?

Today we continue the What Say You series, asking Friends and newcomers about their experience of different kinds of outreach. What does your Quaker meeting do to welcome new people when they walk in the door? How do you orient people to what is expected?

Stay tuned on Wednesday, May 6 for the next query!
