Is our familys support of the military incompatible with the Quaker belief in Peace?
No, absolutely not. The Quakers certainly have a Peace Testimony and as a community, our first reaction to solving our problems is always through peaceful means. Whether it be negotiating, mediating or other creative problem solving, the bottom line is that the conscience of the individual is still the ultimate judge.We believe that everyone is guided by their own inner truth. How that truth is manifested in the real world, is up to the individual. We trust each other to be responsible for our own decisions. We have many military families enrolled in our school and we support those families as we would any other.
