Pendle Hill’s Reading Group (February)

Our Reading Group focuses on Pendle Hill pamphlets and other Quaker readings, gathering to consider queries about the reading in a spirit of worship sharing.

In February, as part of the leadup to our intergenerational LGBTQ+ Dreaming Sanctuary retreat, we will be reading our classic pamphlet, Marriage: A Spiritual Leading for Lesbian, Gay, and Straight Couples (PHP #308) by Leslie Hill. You can purchase a copy of this popular publication at the following links:

PH pamphlet (printed edition)
Amazon Kindle (e-book)
Barnes & Noble Nook (e-book)

Thanks to the generous support of the Friends Foundation for the Aging, we’re able to make this and other free, online programs accessible to f/Friends of all ages.
