Pat Pope commented on Igor Klimov's blog post 'Danger of isolation and absence of other-minded people.'"AMEN! Unfortunately, some people are threatened by other-minded people, so instead of sharing power, they hoard it. You almost have to have an other-minded person in power to have some of the power shared with other-minded people.…"

Pat Pope commented on Jon's blog post 'as the path goes on'"What I liked is the mix of Quaker values/practices such as simplicity with evangelicalism which seemed to be a perfect mix to me, particularly since I was raised in an evangelical environment.
When I say "beyond the walls"…"
Pat Pope commented on Jon's blog post 'as the path goes on'"I attended an evangelical Quaker meeting for 12 years and they did quite a bit of outreach, mainly that which required people to come to the church and then in the last 3 years or so, they've done more beyond the walls. They actually had…"

Pat Pope commented on Kevin Camp's blog post 'Quaker Process Fail'""Since no Friends' precise opinion would be featured, it would be difficult for anyone to take issue with an answer pulled from Faith and Practice."

Pat Pope commented on Kevin Camp's blog post 'Letting Go'""Quakers usually shy away from direct confrontation and are known to pursue almost every other avenue instead."

- Actually, what I did several months ago was introduce a silent prayer group on Wednesday nights. We usually open by sharing prayer requests and just allow the Spirit to lead. There may be audible prayer, silence, some read Scripture, others rest, etc. I always leave these meetings feeling refreshed.

Hi Pat,
It just sounds intriguing to me, though I enjoy unprogrammed worship. My husband is not too interested in things Quaker-I see it as a good compromise that might please us, but is not an option here on the east coast.
I'm glad to meet you here and hope to get to know you more!
Jan Lyn
