Community Outreach
The Quaker Testimonies of Simplicity, Peace, Integrity, Community, Equality and Stewardship are the principles by which a Quaker's outer life becomes an expression of their inner light.
SIMPLICITY
A focus on what is important rather than material distractions.
PEACE
Kindness; gentleness; non-violent resolution of conflict.
INTEGRITY
Honesty; being true to oneself.
COMMUNITY
Inclusion; caring for one another.
EQUALITY
Fairness; valuing each other’s gifts.
STEWARDSHIP
Taking care of what we have and focus on serving others.
Reflecting on these core testimonies as well as our belief in “that of God in everyone,” community outreach is a natural part of spiritual life for Menallen Friends. We recognize the importance of extending kindness, inclusion, and service beyond our immediate circle.
Our commitment to outreach is demonstrated through leadership for youth development, addressing food insecurity, and aiding those experiencing homelessness. We engage in efforts to promote peace and justice in the wider community and prioritize environmental stewardship to protect the resources entrusted to us for future generations.
