Synopsis

My Life is a Quilt: A Book of Quaker Messages by Wendy Clarissa Geiger is a collection of Quaker messages given by Wendy from the silence during numerous Meetings for Worship. Wendy is unique in that she felt lead to remember and write down her messages for a number of years eventually submitting a collection to SEYM Publishing. She was "moved" to speak on a number of topics throughout the last 20 years from "B" Beauty to "W" Worship. Her messages are reflective as well as provide commentary and encouragement for social justice. The reader, Quaker or other, Christocentric to agnostic, or anyone interested in faith and values may find her contributions interesting, sometimes challenging, and always thoughtful from her perspective.
