Salem Quarterly Meeting

Salem Quarter Goals

Adopted June 2005

  1. Nurture awareness of God in ourselves, in others, and in the world.
  2. Make our communities more aware of our work in the world.
  3. Educate ourselves and others about what it means to be a Quaker.
  4. Build community within Salem Quarter with intervisitation, recreational activities, meaningful work together, care of members, and other means that might present themselves.
  5. Focus on filling the empty spaces on the meetinghouse benches with families and individuals of all ages.
  6. Nurture and encourage ministry and spiritual growth.
  7. Encourage closer ties to and wider participation in the larger Quaker community by Salem Quarter monthly meetings and individual Friends.
Discussion at Quarterly Meeting included the role of quarterly meetings in PYM. What does acceptance of a concern by PYM mean to Salem Quarter, its monthly meetings and individual Friends? It was also said that this would include intervisitation with other monthly meetings, etc. It is not intended to be solely hierarchical. Tri-Quarter certainly counts.
