| | FGC: Speaking Truth with Power by Bruce Birchard |
 | | When I joined the local meeting in the spring of 1967, I explained to my clearness committee that I sought membership, first, because religious questions were important to me and I wanted company on my journey, and, second, because it appeared to me that Friends really walked their talk. |
 | | In addition to his administrative duties in this position, he has spoken and written frequently about his personal spiritual journey, about what makes for a vital Friends' meeting, and about organizational leadership within the Religious Society of Friends. |
 | | Bruce started working for the Peace Committee of Philadelphia Yearly Meeting in 1974 when he began a ten-year stint working for disarmament and peace conversion. |
