FAMILY VISITS
As the visiting of Friends in their families in the openings
of heavenly wisdom, is a service which hath often been blessed to
the minds of the visitors and visited, this meeting hath from
time to time recommended it to the solid attention of quarterly
and monthly meetings: and it is desired, that concerns of this
nature may be tenderly cherished, and those who are rightly
exercised therein, encouraged to move forward in due season, and
in a humble dependence on the Shepherd of Israel, who not only
puts his own forth, but goes before and rewards all who are
faithful to his appointments, with the enriching reward of sweet
comfort and solid peace.
