Woodbury MM
The mission of the Peace & Social
Concerns Committee of Woodbury Monthly Meeting is to act in the Light as
children of God. Friends’ testimonies of Peace, Simplicity, Integrity,
Community, Equality guide and inspire how we are to live in the world in
the areas of Peace, social justice, the relationship of the individual to the
state, criminal justice, equality, and stewardship. We recognize the
interrelated nature of these areas of concern, yet understand as well their
unique features as outlined in Faith & Practice, 1997. For
clarity in faith and action, we unite with Woodbury Monthly Meeting; Salem
Quarterly Meeting; Philadelphia Yearly Meeting; Quaker organizations such as
American Friends Service Committee, Friends Committee on National Legislation,
and Right Sharing of World Resources; as well as non-Quaker organizations. We
hope and seek to build a world reflecting divine will and thereby help to bring
about the Peaceable Kingdom on earth.
