On Sunday we had a Quaker Meeting for Business at church. It begins with a community meal, then everyone present is given a copy of the church financial books--every dollar that has come in and how every dollar has been spent is visible. Anyone--man, woman or child--can ask questions or bring up points they would like to discuss. If a decision needs to be made, the entire community will listen together to try to hear what God is saying. No one pushes their own agenda. It is an amazing and refreshing process. And it works!
