Thanks to all who made our booth happen on Solano Stroll last Sunday. Our focus this year was to promote the Food Pantry and to let people know about BFC.
The next quarterly gathering of the Christian Friends Conference—Western Region will be held 9 AM – 3:30 PM, TOMORROW, September 15, here at BFC. You are invited to take part in waiting worship and Bible reading in the manner of Conservative Friends, and to share fellowship and an open discussion with Christian Quakers from around the Bay Area and beyond. Beverages and bagels will be provided in the morning; please bring your own lunch.
The Golden Rule, a historic peace boat, dedicated to “sailing for a nuclear free world,” is in town. Come to Berkeley Friends Church, TOMORROW, September 15 at 6:00 PM to share a potluck, see a documentary film, and learn how you can support the project. Rides on the sailboat are available from the Berkeley Marina on Sunday, September 16 at 2:00 or 4:00 PM. Email Helen Jaccard at vfpgoldenruleproject@gmail.com to reserve a place.
Monthly Business Meeting and Potluck Luncheon is this Sunday, September 16. Please bring a dish (with food in it ; ) or contribute money for kitchen supplies ($3.00 suggested).
Sanctuary Bistro’s benefit dinner for the Berkeley Food Pantry will be THIS SUNDAY, September 16 with dinner service from 5:30 PM to 9:00 PM. Sanctuary Bistro will donate 30% of its profits from the dinner to the Berkeley Food Pantry, so let’s pack the restaurant!
