The New-Old Quaker Women's Club

Beth Smith sits in open worship at her Meeting and meditates on Micah 6:8, "And what doth God require of thee but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God." The still, small voice within moves her to start the New-Old Quaker Women's Club in order to determine how she can do just that. Through the club, Beth and her friends, Sylvia, Lois, and Nancy, learn about Quaker women who followed the leading of the spirit to make the world a better place, gleaning ideas for ways they can do the same in the modern world. Along the way, the women recall challenges from their pasts and new possibilities for their futures, from building closer friendships with each other to improving their relationships with their children and aging parents and experiencing the joy and hope of new love once more. But can the women accomplish what they set out to do, beat the odds, and learn from their predecessors how to "be the church" in the world?
