Discussing the stages of life is never easy, but it still remains one of the most essential acts we can offer both ourselves, our loved ones, and members of our meeting. The upcoming workshop, Creating Your Advance Directives and End of Life Plan, which will be one of the three at the Grief, Loss & Bereavement: A Pastoral Care Thread Gathering On October 19th, will provide a welcoming space for Friends to navigate this delicate subject. Participants will gain insight into critical documents, such as living wills and healthcare directives, that help ensure their values and wishes are honored. The facilitators, Susan W. Hoskins (Newtown Friends Meeting) and Susan K. Garrison (Media Friends Meeting), will lead a discussion on completing important materials, offering peace of mind to us and those we care for.

Western civilization associates healing with doctors, hospitals and medicines manufactured by large pharmaceutical companies. Other cultures, however, look to other methods, steeped in nature, mysticism and religion, to bring wellness to their communities. Please join us at Newtown Square Friends Meeting, on Sunday, September 8, at 1 PM, for an animated discussion of these healing alternatives.
Mystic Friends is a spiritual group formed under the care of Newtown Square Friends Meeting to create a safe community to share and explore mystical experiences in a wide variety of settings. Quakerism, at its heart, is a mystical religion, but many are reluctant to share their mystical experiences out of concern that they may not be welcomed in a warm and supportive manner. Our goal is to encourage the sharing and discussion of mystical experiences in the setting of an old Friends Meeting House.
