And to Joe S. and other readers, there are a lot of misconceptions about what <a href="http://www.fgcquaker.org" rel="nofollow">Friends General Conference</a> does or doesn't do, so I'm glad Ashley can testify to one of FGC's newer programs. I've mentioned to some of the staff at FGC that they could do a better job at sharing with the wider world of Quakers the sorts of activities that occur that are not front-and-center on the website, including supporting Friends who travel in the ministry, providing support to yearly meeting clerks through small biannual workshops, etc. <br /><br />Ashley, I hope one day our paths will cross, perhaps at a yearly meeting other than our own!<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Liz Opp, <a href="http://thegoodraisedup.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">The Good Raised Up</a>Liz Opphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09802348848085930901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4790396293521449566.post-8970315161082417182010-08-12T23:55:19.936-04:002010-08-12T23:55:19.936-04:00Thanks, Mark!

I agree, the time away was good for me and I hope I am the better for it.<br /><br />Joe - It was wonderful to see you at NPYM and thank you for your encouragement. I hope you will get a chance to visit NWYM sometime and share your light with more Friends in the Pacific Northwest.Ashley Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04767912859236943934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4790396293521449566.post-40940072825777302982010-08-11T23:24:35.065-04:002010-08-11T23:24:35.065-04:00From Joe S:

We are grateful for you presence at NPYM and for FGC for releasing you. Hard for me to believe that FGC would release one for gospel ministry, perhaps words left from an earlier time, but you were a gospel presence to us, and a light. Thank you.Ashley Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04767912859236943934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4790396293521449566.post-16638193030831938782010-08-10T18:50:31.817-04:002010-08-10T18:50:31.817-04:00Boy, am I jealous.

You sound as though you are the better for this experience and it help me so the next time I'm at a breaking point I will seek some time away from my duties rather than feeling as though quitting is the answer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
