Engage with Texts Currently Under Discussion
In 2018, the Faith and Practice Revision Committee brought a text on Pastoral Care to Yearly Meeting Sessions and sent it out to the meetings and worship groups for comment. The text has been revised and will come back to the Yearly Meeting for further consideration.
In October 2021 the Yearly Meeting office emailed the draft chapter on Ministry & Counsel, together with a cover letter explaining the feedback we need from meetings. Those documents are posted below; every Friend is invited to download and read the chapter and participate in the discernment process.
