Meeting for Sufferings: Canterbury Commitment Group report

The Canterbury Commitment Group spoke about the structure of their upcoming report

The Canterbury Commitment Group spoke about the structure of their report, which will be presented to Yearly Meeting (YM) 2014 in Bath.  The report is to look at progress towards Britain Yearly Meeting’s (BYM) commitment to become a low-carbon, sustainable community. According to the report, the group has been ‘working on a process to celebrate where the YM has already been led to act, and to discern where and how it would be beneficial for further action to happen’. The group hopes that the outcome will be a strategy for action to be shared at YM 2014. They asked Meeting for Sufferings if it felt that they were on the right track with these five themes: strengthening community; lifestyle; Quaker property; Quaker activities; and political action and systemic change.
