Hiyas. I heard about the site and thought I'd come over and peek.

My name's Kelly, and although it's true that I'm stubborn, I'm really nice about it. I currently live just ouside DC with a tiger striped tabby named Clio, and we're pretty happy here.

You'll read in my profile that I'm Baptist, and while my belief in the Baptist distinctives hasn't changed, I'm attending a Quaker meeting for worship and will likely take membership soon. I prefer the style of worship, and there are some other things that appeal to me -- and the branch I'm involved with doesn't mind the Baptist part.

Anything else you want to know, just ask me. If I know the answer, I'll be glad to give it.

Cheers . . . Kelly

to CF so how long have you had your tiger?

Thanks, guys.

Quaker worship is different than anything I'd ever seen before, but now I'm used to it. Congregants sit in expectant silence and speak as they feel led to do so. It's called vocal ministry. That's an unprogrammed meeting. There are semi-programmed and programmed meetings, too, and those have less silence and more organized "stuff," like singing, a speaker, or even a sermon.

And Clio's two and a half years old, so she's lived with me for . . . 2 and a quarter years. (I was clear she's a little cat, right?)
