The Committee for Ministry and Worship has particular responsibility for nurturing the religious life of the Meeting and the spiritual growth of the meeting membership. Its purpose is to exercise general care of Meetings for Worship, including Meetings for Worship with Attention to Business and Called Meetings. Requests for Clearness Committees (such as for marriage or membership) are generally brought to M&W for initial consideration. Friends are welcome to contact members of M&W for information about the Meeting, for guidance about membership, and with requests for assistance.
