Report of the General Secretary, March 2017

Ministry Coordinating Committee (MCC) met six times over the past year, at Summer, Fall, and Spring Sessions, and on Coordinating Committee weekend. Our meetings were rich and full and we often felt led by Spirit in the work that was brought before us. Ministry Coordinating Committee oversees the work of the yearly meeting committees that guide the spiritual life of our meetings. They include the Advancement Committee, the Committee on Conflict Transformation, Ministry and Pastoral Care and the Intervisitation Group, the Spiritual Nurture Working Group, the Committee to Revise Faith and Practice, the State of Society Committee, The Committee on Sufferings, the Task Group on Racism in New York Yearly Meeting, and Worship at Yearly Meeting Sessions. The work these committees do is rich and Spirit-led and MCC is strengthened through the reports it receives and actions that are brought before it.
