Richard Seebohm
My most memorable experience of ministry was in about 1959 when a young man stood up in Meeting and started ranting. It wasn’t coherent speech, just words. After a while the two elders stood up, took him by his shoulders, and gently walked him out of the Meeting House. I can still recall his voice gradually fading away as they led him off down the garden. (I was not to know then that the Meeting House and garden layout only dated from 1955.)
But my most telling example of ministry isn’t mine. It is item 2.65 of Quaker Faith & Practice. Read it and reflect!
