Attached is your original message. - Results: Ignoring non-text/plain MIME parts - Unprocessed: The book, written by Elizabeth Boardman of San Francisco Friends Meeting, is called Where Should I Stand? A Field Guide for Monthly Meeting Clerks. Elizabeth just finished creating the index yesterday. This book is about the human side of clerking a Meeting. Not much in it about unity vs the sense of the meeting. Lots about the challenging life of a faith community. Elizabeth tapped into the experience of many past and present clerks for her material. One clerk said, "Welcome to the role of lightning rod!" Another said, "I found that often all people wanted from the clerk was omniscience: 'Where is the long extension cord?" Where to stand, what to wear, which committee meetings to attend, how to relate to the meeting's children, getting too tired, looking for help -- these are the kinds of topics discussed in a light and loving way in this volume. The book will market for @12.50 plus shipping. To purchase it, contact www.QuakerBooks.org. - Done. QuakerBooks of Friends General Conference will release the new book about clerking a monthly meeting at the annual FGC conference in late June this year. Already the book is featured in the QuakerBooks catalogue's spring supplement. The book, written by Elizabeth Boardman of San Francisco Friends Meeting, is called Where Should I Stand?
