Our questions:
How did the Spirit move us at Summer Sessions?
How are Friends responding to the call?

What happened at Summer Sessions?
Right Relationship was a strong theme
![Page 5: Ecojustice PowerPoint Presentation - March Sessions](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062405/55587409d8b42aaa7e8b52fd/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

“Is this a moment of grace?” An economy based on the idea of ‘right relationship’ offers…an opportunity to touch the fullness of human meaning and, some would say, the presence of the Divine.”
- Peter Brown, co-author of Right Relationship: Building a Whole Earth Economy

“From the air, it is easy to see the Earth’s wounds…
but it’s too late to be a pessimist.’”

“What we are facing… is not a crisis
but a climacteric.”
Keith Helmuth

The good news…
“A monetary system designed to serve human security and ecological integrity is possible. Examples exist.
Taking up this task as a religious and ethical responsibility may be one of Quakerism’s unique potentials.”

“And it may also result in the re-emergence of a surprising spiritual vitality.”
