Fruits of Travel

Fruits of C Wess Daniels and Lloyd Lee Wilson travelling in the ministry, Seattle, NSFC.

Announcement described travelling in ministry without a set program.

The worship space was full of Friends from a number of Friends congregations. and a sense of having been well-worshipped in.

Silent worship

Voices that stuck with RantWoman, though interpreter brain thinks some voices are missing
LLW spoke of hearing a call to travel in the NW along with a call to wait until C Wess Daniels was ready to go.

Invocation of the native peoples to whom what is now Seattle used to belolong

A message about Light.

A Friend spoke of how to connect and what we share with other Christian denominations.

A Friend spoke of grappling with Faith  vs belief.

RantWoman thought bubble from Breme Brown, Rising Strong: opposite of faith is certainty.

A RantWoman message which started out in RantWoman's head as popcorn kernels in language not appropriate for meeting for worship. Basic point: what does God call us to do with the outrages of the world? Pray for the President and stay out of barfing range? Sing a raucous song in a 900-year-old church asking God to take care of...? Ask God to smite or at least shine a fierce light on the immigration abuses of the day?

RantWoman had a sense of being faithful to her Light. RantWoman also had a sense from stunning tight-breathed silence that RantWoman's Light had not arrived as hoped. RantWoman spent time praying "God, please give someone else a message. We should not close like that."

A message came about Faith and Belief and worship closed except the sharing did not.

Appreciation of the birthing process of Sierra Cascade YM

Further message about a few decades ago perhaps not being permitted by one's home YM to worship with the likes of Friends in the NW.

Car ride consensus on the way home:

Go deeper. Worship Pray.

Also God should give Wess more words.
