New, topical and rediscovered from QuakerBooks
Sweet Fruit from The Bitter Tree: 61 Stories of Creative and Compassionate Ways
Out of Conflict Mark Andreas These are fascinating stories of how real people dealt with conflict situations - from wartime to the broken down car - by responding in unusual and creative ways that most of us would never think of. Some stories are intensely moving, some funny, some startling or surprising. They take place in the community, the workplace, the schoolyard, and the backyard. These stories show how each person came face-to-face with a challenge and found their own unique way to meet it. There are no recipes here, no set of steps-just raw experience unfolding with a richness that will keep you on the edge of your seat through the last page.

Introduction to Quaker Testimonies AFSC
Many newcomers to AFSC are drawn to the commitment to peace and social justice but may not be knowledgeable about the foundations of Quaker faith and practice that guide and infuse the work. In this booklet, AFSC seeks to distill and share the Quaker testimonies that underlie both what we do and how we aspire to do it. This book was inspired by a similar booklet created by San Francisco Friends School (which was itself modeled on one from Sidwell Friends School). AFSC 2011 22 PP. Pamphlet 1-10: $5.00 10 or more: $3.00
