Angela Kurkiewicz posted a blog post6 Weeks and Counting
Hello Friends, It's been an interesting few weeks to say the least. First off, I found out on the 1st of the month that I am pregnant. Don't tell ok? He,he! My dear husband is quite concerned and want's to keep things under wraps until we hit the three month mark. For reasons I'll go over shortly I feel the need to tell, I need community support in this.This is my second pregnancy. My first was in August of 2009. I carried to 13 weeks but when the midwives checked for the heartbeat none could…See More
Angela Kurkiewicz commented on Angela Kurkiewicz's blog post '"Remeber who you are...."'"Well congrats on getting to your local Occupation. The one here started on the 15th. I really want to go but for reasons I will explain my next post I don't think I will make it. Sounds like you had a bit of a rough go. Would love to hear more…"

Angela Kurkiewicz posted a blog post"Remeber who you are...."
About 6 years ago I did a lot of yoga. And I mean A LOT. At least three times a week. I remember during one of the quiet meditative sessions that a voice very clearly spoke up in myself. It said, "Remember who you are". It was a troubled time in my life. I was heading towards another binge stage of my alcoholism, smoking a lot of pot, eating very poorly and running myself ragged through work among other things. That was a turning point though. It has taken me the last 6 years to really begin to…See More
Angela Kurkiewicz commented on Martin Kelley's group 'Friends and the Bible'"Just wanted to say hello! I have very little experience with the Bible itself (my grandmother would recite things from heart...and it was mostly from songs not actual bible verses anyways). I am currently reading the Gospel of John and am enjoying…"

Angela Kurkiewicz commented on Angela Kurkiewicz's blog post 'Notes On My Emerging Faith - Part One'"Thank you Joseph for your words. I find them comforting in a fashion I can't quite explain. I know that within the Quaker community there is a wide range of belief. And I so chose I know I could "remain" a Pagan and still participate.…"
Beth Belch commented on Angela Kurkiewicz's blog post 'Notes On My Emerging Faith - Part One'"Thank you Joseph. I know you said elsewhere that you grew up with a stricter definition of God, rather like I did. Just the idea that God could be both the masculine and the feminine( or the absence of either?) was amazing to me. I…"
Beth Belch commented on Angela Kurkiewicz's blog post 'Notes On My Emerging Faith - Part One'"Hi. I've was raised Christian(ran away screaming), have been Pagan, and a Humanist for a decade and a half. And now, well I don't have a really good label for myself- but yes I've been Quaker a long time without knowing it. I…"

Angela Kurkiewicz replied to Mackenzie's discussion 'Handmaking' in the group Plainness & Simplicity"I find handcrafts a form of simplicity, but it also ties into sustainability and self sufficiency for me.
I also have the far off goal of having most of my wardrobe, linens and cloth products of all sorts to be hand made by myself or other local…"
Profile Information
- About Me
- I am a seeker. Over the last two years I have slowly but inexorably towards not just the Religious Society of Friends, but to a Christian (and Liberal) based form of the faith. This was a bit of a shocker for me, I've been a practising Pagan for 13 years. I cannot deny it any longer at this point, to do so would be detrimental to my well being on every level.
While the ideals of the Liberal branch speak to me, I find I am also called to plain dress, head covering, and plain living.
That being said, please forgive me if I step on anyone's toes, or put my foot in my mouth and offend someone.
