Overview

A story from Patricia McBeein which she learned, as a new clerk how to listen to the movement of Spirit in a Meeting for  Business.  A Friend confronted her over the style and content of her clerking and walked out.  She wanted to respond in kind, but the business of Meeting kept her from reacting.  “Later, I was amazed at how the Spirit had taken over the clerkship and kept me focused on what the meeting needed.”
