Food for Thought

"Meister Eckhart says that we can only spend in good works what we earn in contemplation, and that is undoubtedly a valuable admonition to those of us serving Quaker institutions, but it is probably equally the case that what is earned in contemplation cannot be saved up indefinitely but must be spent regularly in service to others."

Paul A. Lacy, in Education and the Inward Teacher


What's New at Stony Run

***DON’T FORGET***  During the months of July and August, First Day Meetings for Worship are held at 8:30 and 10:00 am.

ELECTRONIC LIBRARY CATALOG IS NOW AVAILABLE AS A SPREADSHEET ON THE STONY RUN WEBSITE.  It includes almost all of the children's books and over one-third of the adult books in the library, but excludes the older books in the white wrappers.  It displays the title, author, and call number for each book.  Books are shelved by call number, and a general guide as to where each section is located is also included in the Library committee section of the website.  The catalog is current as of June 27, 2010 and will be updated every few months as the remaining books are catalogued.  The committee wishes to thank Paul Phillips for his assistance in putting this information on our website.

WE DELIVERED 20 FULL BAGS OF GROCERIES TO THE CARES FOOD PANTRY IN JULY.  Thanks, and keep up the good work!  With kids home from school, the need is high all summer long.

HOW DO YOU EXPERIENCE HOLY FELLOWSHIP?  The Reading and Study Group will resume meeting on Thursday, September 9, from 7:30 to 9:00 pm in the Library, and then continue to meet every second and fourth Thursday of the month.   We will continue our discussion of The Testament of Devotion, by Thomas Kelly, concentrating on the section The Blessed Community.  Please join us.  For further information please contact Don Gann or Sandi Morton.

INTERESTED IN DEEPENING YOUR SPIRITUAL LIFE?  Enrollment is underway for the 2010-2011 Spiritual Formation Program sponsored by the BYM Ministry & Pastoral Care Committee.  This nine-month program begins and ends with a weekend retreat.  In between, local groups gather twice monthly – once in small groups to support each person’s exploration of spiritual practices that can bring him or her closer to God, and in a larger local group to discuss a book that participants have read and considered during the preceding weeks.  For more information, see the tri-fold brochures on the hallway lecterns (and, there is one on the cork board outside the Meeting office).  Nurture funds from Stony Run are available for Spiritual Formation participants.  The registration deadline is August 16.

MARK YOUR CALENDAR FOR STONY RUN’S ANNUAL CAMPING WEEKEND -- the first weekend in 10th month!!  Come to beautiful Camp Catoctin for one day or for the whole weekend and enjoy the fall colors and mountain-fresh air.  The weekend will include hiking, canoeing, nighttime visits to the camp fire ring, cooperative meals, and time to play, relax and share with other Friends.  A registration form will be available in 9th month.  If you are willing to serve on the Planning Committee or have any questions, please contact Blaine Keener.
