Review of Quaker Stewardship Committee

Big change: QSC, which was established nearly 20 years ago to oversee
Trustees' responsibility for compliance with Charity regulations, both
at YM and AM levels, is to be laid down, and their responsiblities
transfered to QLCC and MfS.

BoDRC interim report

Still mostly foundation-laying

Seven themes emerging
– Spirituality, worship and discernment
– individually and collectively with God 
• Quaker community – life in our meetings 
• Testimony and faith in action – in the world 
• Stages of personal life journeys and close relationships 
• Church government – how we organise ourselves 
• Our story – where we have come from and where we are going 
• Advices & Queries

5 key insights:

1. We can all have direct access to God/Spirit/ the Divine. This
   experience / encounter /relationship can transform us.

2. We live under guidance from God/Spirit/ the Light/ the promptings
   of love and truth in our hearts

3. We recognise and seek to address that of God in each human being –
   each of us is unique and precious

4. There is a dynamic Spirit bringing continuing revelation

5. We hold the whole of life sacramental and so we do not divide the
   sacred and the secular
