- About Me
- member, Schuylkill Friends Meeting, Phoenixville, PA, USA
I love listening for the still, small voice.
Je parle français ...e pure italiano.
I have a hard time understanding why anyone would torture, whether to obtain information or for any reason.
When in doubt, be kind.

On Knowing Ourself

Yes, I wrote ourself: the grammatical error is deliberate. Tomorrow two facilitators will visit Schuylkill Friends and at rise of meeting will explain the purpose of the survey members and attenders will complete as part of the "Knowing Ourself as a Meeting" process, developed by the Center for Deepening and Strengthening Our Meetings, a ministry of PYM. The use of the singular --ourself-- emphasizes that our meeting is a community with a collective personality. The results of the survey… Continue

Dazzled by gold ornaments
by trees swathed in white lights
and the winter sun piercing
stained glass
with its ice-pure rays
Body and soul vibrating
to the organ’s swell
I sang with the choir and congregation
Superlatives and absolutes
flowed from the liturgy
like wine
from a celestial cask
Gloria to God in the highest
Deum de Deo
Lumen de lumine
Deum verum de Deo vero

So one more enemy leader is dead
killed by a drone
Rejoice! they said
Cacophonous carols assail the ear
and mountains of merchandise
stifle our fear
Isaiah wanders the glitzy streets
searching for signs
of the Prince of Peace
Wearied by Macy’s wonderland
he lies down with plush Leo
and soft Gucci lamb
And Mary, her soul extolling the Lord
looks for fulfillment
of his gracious word
Of haughty… Continue

Hi Barbara~Yes, I truly am just over the bridge into NJ, so the meeting I attend/visit is minutes from me-Buckingham. I like it a lot, but don't get out as much as I'd like and miss it right now. Small meeting, but warm.
Have a great day,
Jan Lyn
