Yesterday at church was, for me, the epitome of what I love about Quaker worship: People gathered together with humble hearts; a deep sense of God's holy presence; ministry in speech and song and silence; a clear and profound message from God, spoken not just from the pulpit but also from out of the reverent listening stillness, through the mouths of various women and men in the gathering; an unforced sense of community as people lingered after the meeting to lovingly give their time and attention to one-another. Beautiful.
