Any Quakers?

[Ignatius the Evangelist]

Though I'm not a 'convinced' Quaker, I do belong to an international organization for Quakers and those interested known as the Wider Quaker Fellowship. Essentially it is a loose fellowship for those of us that are separated from other Quakers.

Just noticed this thread ( I visit here irregualarly). I am a Conservative Quaker living in isolation in New South Wales, Australia.

I sometimes attend the unprogrammed liberal meeting 2 hours away by car. Otherwise I meet on first day in traditional silent waiting worship while my wife and family go to Church. The attendees on first day are myself and the Lord Jesus.

In Christ and in F/friendship

Used to be a member of the WQF myself before I became a MM Friend.

I'm happy that you have found a group that you are able to worship with. It's also good to meet a former WQF member.

Grace and Peace brother.

I'm sure you've been asked this before Risingmoon, but did you really touch William Shatner?

I am a conservative, VERY conservative to many Quakers, QUAKER. You may have seen me in other threads speaking about water baptism and such. I am not a typical quaker probably. i attend a programed meeting. Our yearly meeting is under FUM.

Hi
So I'm guessing you're against water baptism?

 

[QuakerOats]

Welcome Risingmoon, and welcome Schroeder!

 

[Ramona]

This is WF, QuakerOats. I changed my name.

 

[QuakerOats]

Yeah, that occurred to me after. Oh wells, hi anywho!

Actually no. i was water baptized and i water baptized my daughter as well. i am just against it being for ANYTHING but to show an association.

Welcome!

Where do plain Friends still exist?

And what is a primitive Friend?

 

[CelticRose]

Hi ~ & what is a primitive friend? Never heard of them before.

Hello, plain friends exist mainly in the consevative branch. We are led to plain dress and speech. Primitive friends practice our faith (Quakerism) the way it was founded, unchanged. This means no music, dancing , photos, cars, electricity, etc. They live much the same as the amish, but much much more strictly. I thank thee for asking and hope this helps.

Where are these Friends found today?

I mean if I wanted to visit one of their meetings, where would I look for one?
