Area Senior Center, our landlord. We recruit, train and schedule volunteers to
open, set up, greet, close worship and to bring refreshments, clean and lock
the building as well as rides for attenders. We maintain the directory and the

Faith In Action Committee finds ways in which we can
act on the peace and justice testimonies of Friends. Recent examples include sending post cards to
legislators on gun violence, institutional racism, and the Keystone pipeline, and thinking about how we get to Meeting in the context of
global warming. We are working on a
poster for SSFM and a banner for us and other area Meetings to use during marches.

and committees needed for our Meeting to function, trying to fit the needs of
