Peace and Equality

The first step to peace is to stand still in the Light... (George Fox 1653)

Query:
Do we faithfully maintain our peace testimony?

Advice:
Friends' peace testimony is the positive exercise of goodwill calling us to lend our influence to all that strengthens the growth of international friendships and understanding.

God is directly accessible to all persons, regardless of age, gender, race, nationality, sexual orientation, economic or social or educational position. (Gordon Brown 1990)

Query:
Do we, as individuals and as a Meeting, do all in our power to end governmental, social, economic, and educational injustices in our community, and to create equal opportunity for all?

Advice:
Seek to understand the causes of social ills and work toward their removal.
