Paul Landskroener replied to Rich Accetta-Evans's discussion 'Did you know about the "Public Universal Friend" Jemimah Wilkinson?'
Not to divert too far from Rich's original piece, I want to note that Peace Pilgrim did indeed have quasi-Quaker connections, and this Quaker has a poignant quasi-connection to Peace Pilgrim: In July 1981, she was visiting the Methodist Church…

I love Star in the East. Southern Harmony has a lot of really beautiful tunes - other favorites of mine are Consolation, #17, Condescension #312, Tender Care #331, and The Turtle Dove #43. I live near Green Bay, WI - if anyone is ever in this area,…

I agree with you. They are songs first. I just haven't found the opportunity to join a shape note group.
Paul Landskroener commented on Paul Landskroener's group 'Quaker Sacred Harp singers'
I guess I qualify as a "folk musician" and agree that there are a lot of wonderful tunes in the Sacred Harp, Southern Harmony, and other shape-note books that are beautiful when played on dulcimer, banjo, etc. But nothing comes close to…

I'm new to this group. I don't sing Sacred Harp, but love the music. I do play Sacred Harp and Southern Harmony tunes on my mountain dulcimer. I'm currently working on learning Star in the East - 16 Southern Harmony. Any other folk…

What's singing in my head these days: Last week: Swanton, 352 - The voice of my beloved sounds, over the rocks and rising grounds. Yesterday in Meeting: Holy Manna 59. And I'm having fun switching around words to tunes of the same meter. -…

- Hi, Paul: at your invitation, I joined this group. Not sure how much I will be able to participate, since we have a slow dial-up connection and other family members have first dibs on the computer. Thanks for the report on Sacred Harp singing at FGC - sounds like things went very well in the workshop. - Carol

It's good to see you here (and to see you on my list of friends). I've been thinking about your recent comment on my blog and hope to say more soon about why it is that some Friends "have a hard time saying so" (that they believe in God) and what those who do believe in God can do about it.

Called Out, Called In: Maggie Harrison's Loving Challenge
There is a prophet in our midst, and her name is Maggie Harrison. Rousing many like fire, making my skin itch at being possibly excluded from this club that I don't even belong to, really (when asked if I am a Quaker, I always respond, 'Not yet.'), but want to think I can put on and off like so much-- clothing?And, nakedness. Taking off the mantle of Religious Identity, making space for the un-knowingness of living INTO something, removing armor and scaffold and hard won (or not so hard won)…See More

First of all, Mazel Tov! Prayers to your pregnancy, may it be a healthy, happy event in your life.
With my children, I have raised them with my beliefs, explained why I dress Plain for worship, and leave them with what I have taught in hopes…
Paula Roberts replied to Elin Hagberg's discussion 'Plain babies and children' in the group Plainness & Simplicity
Congratulations Elin! I don't have children so I'm going to speculate, but I don't think raising your kids differently from other people is going to injure them at all. Of course I am surrounded by people who are doing that very…
Barbara Smith replied to Elin Hagberg's discussion 'Plain babies and children' in the group Plainness & Simplicity
Elin - Congratulations! The bigger question you are raising is how to bring up spiritually healthy children in an unhealthy world! We have nine children and homeschooled all of them right from the start. They are amazing people and I know for a fact…
Mackenzie replied to Lauren Smith's discussion 'Parenting as a Friend'
I'm not a parent, so grain of salt ;)
I maintain the opinion that setting a good example from the earliest age is what's important. Consistent rules probably have the best chance of being followed. That's not to say "when…
Zaley Warkentin replied to Elin Hagberg's discussion 'Plain babies and children' in the group Plainness & Simplicity
My thought would be to provide your child with both options and let them choose day to day...
When I was much younger I was dressed both plain and modern, but as I grew older my parents encouraged me to dress mainstream. In my case, I became more…
Plain babies and children
I am expecting a baby if everything goes well this summer. I just want to hear if there are any thoughts about teaching and showing the plain way to children. The table is open and I just want to hear what you think about this, is it even possible in today's society to raise children like that?As both me and my partner wear mainly clothes of a modern make we will buy 'normal' clothes for our children but try buy a lot of things second hand or try to swap them with others. When our child is a…See More

Daily Bible Reading: Deuteronomy 32 and 1 Corinthians 5
Deuteronomy 32 – The Song of Moses [the number of verses equals the number of letters in the Hebrew alphabet – 23 - times 3. It concludes the teaching books of the Old Testament: “my teaching will fall like drops of rain and form on the earth like dew. My words will fall like showers on young plants, like gentle rain on tender grass” (32:2). From the beginning, the Judeo-Christian vision has been that we humans are here on earth as creations of a “mighty,” “just” and “perfect” God, who seeks…See More
