Welcome to Eastbourne Quakers
In these times of increasing intolerance and deepening divides isn't it refreshing to know there exists
a group of people who do not claim to know the truth, but only seek to find it...
People who don't dismiss other faiths, but are open to being inspired by them...
People who will help you develop your own beliefs, rather than adopt theirs.
EASTBOURNE FRIENDS NEWSLETTER OCTOBER 2018
Advices & Queries No. 27
Live adventurously. When choices arise, do you take the way that offers the fullest opportunity for the use of your gifts in the service of God and the community?
Let your life speak. When decisions have to be made, are you ready to join with others in seeking clearness, asking for God’s guidance and offering counsel to one another?
Daphne Bennett
d. Sept 2nd 2018
Scholar of words and thoughts,
Frail of body and strong of mind
Hidden feelings, masked too
By the endocrine system so
Complex even the doctors
Don’t know what to do
Elegance of dress and
Joyful friend, who I
Shall miss very, very much
We laughed together many
Times over our own frailties
And complexities of mind.
Goodbye brave one,
I will miss you so.
May the light shine
Upon your soul.
