Your Story is Your Legacy: Recording Your Family History

By Contributor Post
May 23rd, 2022 Uncategorized No Comments

Today’s culture and technology focus on the stories we all have and how to share them. Whether it’s because of apps like Facebook or the advent of smart phones and self-publishing, it is now easier than ever to preserve your story for future generations.

Easier said than done though… Where do you start? What stories do you include? And is anyone actually interested?

I founded Memoirs & More to help people answer these questions. I lost my father before I graduated from college and my mother in my 30s. I know what many in younger generations don’t: when a p…

Friends Talk – Stewardship, the Second “S” of the Quaker SPICES

By Contributor Post

Today I am writing about the last Quaker testimonial.  It is the second “S” in the SPICES acronym: Stewardship.

As I ponder this value for myself, it reminds me to truly be a steward of my own personal gifts and talents.  In addition, it compels me to give back and to seek to leave the world a better place.
What Stewardship Means to Quakers
For people in the Quaker faith, the meaning of Stewardship starts at the personal level.  From there, it expands to become more far-reaching.

According to the American Friends Service Committee, “Friends strive to use Go…

It’s Time for a Self-Care Plan

By Katie Starrantino
April 19th, 2022 Health & Wellness No Comments

Self-care is any activity you perform that helps you maintain and improve your own well-being.  When I speak with clients, I often use the analogy of a mug full of tea.  You start off with a full mug and then you may pour some to your grandchildren, to your volunteer activities, to a parishioner at your church.  By the end of the day, your mug is empty, and it needs to be filled back up.  Self-care helps us do that.

One of the best ways to start a self-care plan is to focus in on the dimensions of wellness.  These dimensions are: physical, intellectual, emotional, s…

By Contributor Post
April 11th, 2022 News & Events No Comments

There are over 300,000 Quakers around the world.  The highest concentration is in Africa.  Although it can be challenging to get an exact count among all the branches, it is estimated that there are around 75,000 Quakers in the United States. This is the Quaker Community and brings to life an important Quaker value – the “C” of the SPICES “Community”.

A map developed by the Friends World Committee for Consultation shows concentrations of Quaker Communities across the world. It includes the various branches of Quakerism.  These branches share a connection in the Socie…
