Hello all,FUM's "Forty Days of Prayer for the Future of Friends" starts tomorrow, 10/10. This strikes me as a lovely, grace-filled opportunity for us to come together in prayer. FUM has created a booklet filled with passages from scripture and daily "devotionals" for us to reflect on together. We are encouraged to do so in groups. Knowing there are many isolated Friends, or perhaps Friends from Meetings that did not set up any structure to do this, I thought we should start a forum thread…See More

Sarah Rosemary Ann Zimmermann replied to Susan Furry's discussion 'What is salvation?' in the group Christianity"Several things.
There's the usual theological sense, sure.
But practically, I truly believe in my redemption when I experience God's unconditional love through another human- when a friend or Friend is there for me in such a way that…"

Sarah Rosemary Ann Zimmermann replied to Rosemary Gould's discussion 'Plain Speech'"I wonder what modern implementations of Plain Speech others are called to. In the days since Hattie's memorial, I have tried (and consistently failed) to give up saying cruel things about others. I am going to keep trying.
