Donna Knicely Bequest

Bequest Plan from Donna Knicely Bequest ad hoc Committee 

On December 13, 2019,  the Bequest ad hoc Committee presented a plan for Meeting’s consideration in advance of an information session to be held on February 2nd, 9:30am. The Bequest ad hoc Committee asks that Friends read the information provided here to familiarize themselves with the plan and proposed mini-grant formation.

 

In summary, in accordance with the ideas envisioned by Meeting, the Bequest ad hoc Committee proposes the bequest be designated for Clearing use, Meeting use, and a new Legacy Mini-Grant Program.

Questions and comments may be made in advance to Monica Shaw, monicakshaw123@gmail.com

Vigils for Peace- Sunday and Monday

Love casts out fear and is a potent alternative to hate.  Faith communities will gather to offer opportunities to strengthen our resolve to love.  White Supremacists gather in our town with the intent of spreading fear and hate.  We need to be as committed to peace and justice as they are to their creeds.
 Richmond Friends Meeting will hold a vigil at 7:00 on Sunday and Monday evenings at our Meeting House, in the Meeting Room.
There will be other vigils  during the day on Monday.  We will post details as they are announced.
