NEWS & ANNOUNCEMENTS
Long Range Planning Listening Sessions Announced
The Long Range Planning Group is looking ahead, well beyond our immediate concerns about Yearly Meeting finances and programs, to help everyone in our faith community discern what our monthly, quarterly and yearly meetings may become and blossom into. We have scheduled eight regional Listening Sessions this spring to help begin the process. Learn more about how you can participate in our Listening Sessions.

Photo Essay on Junior Interim Meeting at SHARE - March 2012
In March, we invited everyone of any age to join us for this year's final visit to SHARE. Throughout the day 75 people helped work on projects for SHARE. As we arrived the space became louder and full of energy. We quickly circled up to welcome everyone and split into five teams: two groups to paint, two groups to pack food and make boxes, and one group to sort through supplies. As we split off into our groups we quickly found out that kids love to paint! Read Rebecca Sullivan's photo essay about what we accomplished at SHARE.

PYM Sessions Planning Group Announces 2012 Theme
Sessions Planning Group discerned Living the Holy Experiment as the theme for Annual Sessions 2012, in celebration of our Quaker history in Philadelphia, and the ongoing exploration of our witness in the wider world, especially in these times of change. William Penn’s Holy Experiment was about applying religious principles to the work of the world. The colony was to offer religious and civil liberty so that all could live peacefully according to their principles. During these sessions we will explore together -How do we apply our principles to how we live in the world, with one another in community, and how we conduct our business?
