QUAKER STUDY

I met with Doug Shoemaker (Indiana Yearly Meeting Superintendent) for lunch and had a great discussion about our journey into Indiana Yearly Meeting. He would like to hold a lecture series for Hinkle about Quakerism and Indiana Yearly Meeting and will be starting this series on Sunday evening, June 5th at 5:30 p.m.. The series will continue each Sunday evening until the curriculum is completed. The goal is to have us educated prior to the Indiana Yearly Meeting Sessions where we will be brought before the body to be recommended to go back to full Monthly Meeting Status. It is very important for as many as possible to attend these sessions so we can be informed about our relationship with Indiana Yearly Meeting. This is quite a sacrifice of time for this busy man to clear his calendar to accomodate us. Please mark your calendars and plan to attend this special session. I'd love it if the whole congregation could attend. If you are a relative new member or contemplating membership at Hinkle, I urge you to attend so you can fully understand what the Quaker Faith is all about.
