We are playing catch up a bit but just still in May – the latest Epping Newsletter – May 2017
A big focus in this issue are the series of study sessions we have completed as part of the wide move across the Society to read Quaker Faith and Practice as we start to consider if it might need revision. You can find the full text of the current edition of Quaker Faith and Practice online.
Epping Quakers have written an open letter to Barclays Bank regarding their support for the fracking of shale gas in the UK.
Since 2011 Quakers have, as a faith community, been committed to take action collectively to build a low-carbon, sustainable community.
As Quakers, we call on Barclays to remove its support for fracking and instead invest in renewable energy.

It is Quaker Week at present. Once a year Quakers in Britain make an extra effort to let people know what they might encounter at a Quaker Meeting and to provide a bit of information. One method Quakers have used to do this is the Quaker Tapestry this recently visited Chelmsford Cathedral and a group of Epping Friends went to visit. You can read about that visit, recent study sessions and see future dates in our October newsletter
If you have ever wondered about the Quakers then do come and visit us this Sunday or any Sunday – we will be glad to welcome you.
