Interchange - Fall 2006
In early July, Graham Leonard of Frederick Meeting
gave a talk sponsored by Shepherdstown Meeting on
his recent experiences in Iraq and other parts of the
Middle East, along with the work of the Christian Peacemakers.
His talk provided a lot of historical context for
the current crisis and was very well received.
We said farewell in late July to our Friend Linda Tate,
who is moving to Colorado. We appreciate her efforts
that helped lead us to our allowed status as part of
Frederick Meeting, and we wish her well in her new
adventures and new job.
In August attenders of Shepherdstown Meeting spent
an afternoon at the Friends Wilderness Center in Harpers
Ferry. We enjoyed a picnic on the porch of the Niles
Cabin, hiked to the tree house, and enjoyed some silent
worship in the meditation center.
This fall we will start our book group with two books,
Collapse by Jared Diamond and God’s Politics: Why
the Right Gets It Wrong and the Left Doesn’t Get It
by Jim Wallis. We will hold our book discussions along
with a pot-luck at the rise of meeting at people’s homes.
Shepherdstown Allowed Meeting gathers each Sunday
for worship at 10:30 am in the back room of Four
Seasons Bookstore on German Street in Shepherdstown.
