Patapsco’s Advancement and Outreach Committee has completed the design of a new brochure and had them printed. Copies are available at the Meeting; click here for an electronic version.
The brochure is designed primarily as an invitation to worship with us. Friends are encouraged to take copies wherever they go and share them with prospective visitors. We will also have them available at any public events we sponsor.
In addition, the brochure will be shared with newcomers as they arrive at Meeting. We will also continue to have the newcomer packet available, though the committee will be considering revisions to it. We encourage your input on what newcomers find helpful.
The brochure features photographs taken by Nony Dutton, which capture the warmth and welcome of our community and highlight our lovely worship space at Hebron House. Meagan Healy did the graphic design.
Other Meetings are welcome to borrow from our text, just as our text borrows from others, such as the newcomer cards developed by Friends General Conference.
This year, Patapsco will be having a spiritual formation program to invite us, individually and together, into a deeper experience of God’s presence through devotional readings, spiritual community and individual spiritual practices. “Spiritual formation” can be understood as forming ourselves more fully into the persons, and the Meeting, God created us to be.
