The new book, where Should I Stand? A Field Guide?for Monthly Meeting Clerks is selling briskly.
But the contents of the book are not the last word.? Now we are hoping for feed-back and dialogue.? What have you seen in the book that you like?? What other ideas do you have about life in local meetings?
Cheers...................Author Elizabeth Boardman

Coming to Meeting for Business
Friends often ponder the difference between gossip and caring concern.??Perhaps the difference is one of intent and tone.? As a Friend pointed out last week, we cannot really come prepared to Meeting for Business unless we know what is going on in?our Meeting?community.
Another observation?(which clerks could call to the attention of members and attenders) is that simply showing up at?Meeting for Business makes people be taken more seriously and thus changes their social and spiritual lives as members of the community.
