Sun, 27 January - 3 March- Quakerism 101 at Salem MM. Where did Quakerism come from? What do Friends believe that makes them different from other religious groups? How does Quaker worship work? What about meetings for business? What are the Quaker testimonies, and how are they expressed? Who are the other Friends in the world—in the Midwest and West, in Latin America and Africa? Where will the Religious Society of Friends go in the next 50 years, or the next 350?
Gene Hillman, Adult Religious Education coordinator for Philadelphia Yearly Meeting, will address these questions and others in the six-week Quakerism 101 course at Salem MM this winter. The course will gather at Salem on Sunday evenings at 7:00 from 27 January through 3 March. All members and attenders of Salem Quarter monthly meetings are welcome—at no charge.
