What a gift it was to have 24 hours with other Canadian church leaders on retreat last week, thanks to The Canadian Council of Churches.
In the midst of soul and community practices of praying, eating, and pouring our hearts out together about our hopes for our churches, we naturally shared hopes for our society as well. Many of you know how indebted I feel to Quakers within my own journey of faith, and last week I received yet another Quaker gift from Anne Mitchell, clerk of the Canadian Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends—a gift of being introduced to the soulful communal Quaker practice of “scrupling.”
