We won't be having Meeting for Worship at the West Newton meetinghouse on Sunday, September 3. Instead we'll be joing with Indianapolis First Friends and others for "Labor of Love." In response to the atrocities currently taking place in our country, First Friends has invited usto a peaceful gathering of neighbors and Friends on Sunday, September 3rd at 10:15 in their Meditational Woods.

We will gather in solidarity with our community and nation to express our desire for peace, equality, unity and love. The event will include responses and opportunities for awareness through story, song, and art, as well as, a message from guest speaker, Malkah Bird, from American Friends Service Committee of Indianapolis and music by Eric Baker. Also, a special time of waiting worship in the manner of Friends will be offered allowing participants to speak out their responses to these difficult times. To conclude we are planning a special sending and call to action to take place around our peace pole.
