Ministry & Council is sponsoring a potluck and time of fellowship on Friday, November 7, 2014 so that more Friends might be able to experience a little of the sweet sharing that happens at the Seekers Group gatherings each month. Child care will be provided.
Everyone is asked to bring at least one canned good to donate to the local food pantry.
We will gather in the Community House at 6pm and aim to all share supper at 6:30.
After supper, children will be encouraged to settle in, in their PJ’s, with Katey Baker-Smith, who will read aloud stories from a selection of children’s books. A laptop with a movie suitable for children, and other “low-key” art-type activities will also be on hand to end the children’s part of the evening. Adults can gather over coffee, tea, and dessert to share a conversation facilitated by the Seekers Group on the topic of Simplicity.
The evening’s program will end at 8:30 PM.
Attached is a collection of quotes that might be helpful as a springboard, though one can never fully predict where the Spirit will lead the conversation! Please see quotes HERE.
The Seekers Group is a circle of people from our Meeting and the wider community who gather one evening a month for worship, conversation, and mutual spiritual nurturing. Those in the group have found it to be a wonderful way to know one another on a deeper level and to be renewed in hope and faithfulness. There has been a deep desire to share this joy and fellowship with more of Westport Friends.
