Thought for the Week: Being a Quaker today

Mary Penny reflects on being a Quaker today

by Mary Penny 27th June 2014

At the time of the second Summer Gathering I was invited to cater for the Planning Committee so they could both stay and eat together throughout the event. I then went on to cater for small, low budget, residential meetings and gatherings. It was great fun. Food was always vegetarian, and I enjoyed the challenge of being as inclusive as possible while catering for a variety of special needs – even for the person who put ‘vegan’ just to see what turned up!
