Crossroads Friends Meeting

We shall gather for unprogrammed, waiting worship in the Name of Jesus Christ and in the manner of Friends on the dates and at the times listed, at our meetinghouse unless otherwise specified.  Visitors and new attenders are always welcome.  For those not familiar with unprogrammed worship, a small brochure is available (either at the meeting or on our website www.michiganquakers.org), offering general guidance and tips on “meeting etiquette.”  Additional materials on the Religious Society of Friends are also available at rise of meeting (and on the website).  Before rise of meeting on First Day [Sunday], the designated meeting closer reads aloud an Advice.  This is followed by framing silence before the handshake of fellowship which marks rise of meeting.

A time of fellowship follows meeting for worship.  On the second First Day [Sunday] of each month, following fellowship, we hold our meeting for business.  (Depending on other events, business meeting may be shifted to another week.)

We will study The Holy Bible, comparing the 1611 King James Version and the 1764 “Quaker Bible” translation by Anthony Purver, on First Day [Sunday] morning before Meeting for Worship.

Advice 12: Members are affectionately reminded of the importance of keeping correct and clear accounts pertaining to all outward affairs.  It is important to make wills, or revisions of them, while still in health of mind and body, and free from any feeling of resentment.  Delay, or neglect to secure competent legal advice, may cause some unexpected hindrance in the proper execution of one’s bequests.

Advice 14: Live in love, as Christian brethren, ready to be helpful one to another.  Rejoice together in the blessings of life; sympathize with each other in its trials.  Know one another as fellow-workers in the things that endure.  Watch over one another for good, praying that each may be a living member of the Church of Christ, and may grow in the knowledge of the love of God.

Advice 16: Be diligent in the reading of the Bible and other spiritually helpful writings.  Gather daily in your families for worship.  Such times have a special value in bringing little children especially into the experience of united worship, and so preparing them for the larger meeting for worship, as they learn in the silence to bow to the power of God.
