Overview and metadata sections

New York Yearly Meeting was first held in 1696 as the Yearly Meeting at Flushing or Long Island, consisting essentially of the Flushing Quarterly Meeting that was set off from New England Yearly Meeting. Meeting for Sufferings was established in 1758 and was held quarterly to represent and hold any business of the Yearly Meeting while it was not in session.

In 1978 Ministry and Counsel was reorganized and enlarged, the name of its Executive Committee changed to the Coordinating Committee on Ministry and Counsel, and the nme of its parent body to Yearly Meeting on Ministry and Counsel. At this time it had four constituent committees: Epistle, Faith and Practice, Human Relations, and Sufferings.

At Summer Sessions 2007, the Coordinating Committee for Ministry and Counsel (CCMC) was laid down and a Ministry Coordinating Committee was established. Four new committees were created at the same time -- Worship at YM Sesions, State of the Society, Ministry and Pastoral Care, Spiritual Nurture -- so that the MCC could function as a coordinating committee rather than as a committee of the whole.

Records of the Ministry Coordinating Committee and related records of the united New York Yearly Meeting. This collection also includes the records of predecessor groups: the Yearly Meeting on Ministry and Counsel (1978-2007), the Meeting of Ministry and Counsel and its Executive Committee (1956-1978), the Orthodox and Hicksite Meetings of Ministers and Elders of the two New York Yearly Meetings (1828-1955), and the Pre-Separation records of Ministers and Elders (1650s-1828).

Collection Inventory

Biographical / Historical

Starting before 1656, the Committee of Ministers and Elders was formed to fill a couple of functions: to record public friends (visiting Friends), as well as to take concern over the individual meetings of New York Yearly Meeting. To do this they appointed members to visit each meeting. The committee also kept note of the numbers of Ministers, Elders, and Overseers in these meetings. In 1828, the Committee split along Hicksite/ Orthodox lines. In 1902 the Orthodox committee changed its name to Ministry and Oversight; in 1907 the Hicksite committee changed its name to Ministry and Counsel. Having joined together in the reunification, the Meeting of Ministry and Counsel still continues today, its main work done through the State of Society Reports each year, which is presented at Yearly Meeting and has been since before 1800.
