The following was read at the Rise of Meeting on Sunday, August 25, 2019, from Baltimore Yearly Meeting’s Faith and Practice:
“Be patterns, be examples in all countries, places, islands, nations, wherever you come; that your carriage and life may preach among all sorts of people, and to them. Then you will come to walk cheerfully over the world, answering that of God in every one; whereby in them ye may be a blessing, and make the witness of God in them to bless you. Then to the Lord God you will be a sweet savour and blessing.”
—George Fox, 1653
