Back from Yearly Meeting!

A new medicine made the first 4 days really, really, (really) hard, but the workshop I attended, led by Hugh Barbour and Brian Drayton (!!) opened a lot to me, and the last full day of sessions I had an unexpected and rather unorthodox first taste of clerking, which brought with it a strong taste of God. I hope to write more (and more regularly) after I have a little time to process. I almost tried to go home early, but it didn't feel right, and I am glad I stuck it out.

God bless New England Yearly Meeting!

I'm glad you are taking time to reflect, digest, and integrate. I'm looking forward to reading more from you, as you are ready.

Blessings,
Liz, The Good Raised Up

I'm glad you didn't leave too. There's a lot of faith at New England Yearly Meeting. Even with all the human-ness and stuff too. I bet you'd be a good clerk.

Whoa, I was reading Hugh Barbour about... 20 minutes ago.

And Brian Drayton is undisputably fabulous. You lucky duck. :-)
