Oh bother -- I shall never become a member of a Meeting -- I move too often, and to too many sites without Friends.

I was browsing and found your comment about never joining a meeting because you move to often. Amen! I'm in the same boat, and it's frustrating.

- About Me
- I was raised Plain Amish-Mennonite. However, my mother was a Friend, convinced in highschool (Sidwell Friends' School, to be exact). Over the decades since childhood I've been finding my way in the Light of Jesus (praise God) and am presently hoping for fellowship with Conservative Friends.
My interests are music, reading (particularly philosophy and theology), and good conversations. Some of my favorite authors are Gerard Manley Hopkins, Soren Kierkegaard, and John (who wrote the Gospel).
Not long ago, I quit a career in publishing technologies in New York to seek work for God. At the moment, I am helping homeless youth. Permanently working directly for God is my greatest desire right now! although I do not yet really know how to go about it.

Daily Bible Reading: Deuteronomy 28 and Galatians 6
Deuteronomy 28 – If you obey the voice of God by observing the law, you will prosper. Disobedience will bring destruction (28:45). The big word in this chapter, as in others, is if or “provided” or “so long as.” This is the great condition that hangs over the redemption people. The word does not disappear under the new covenant either as we sometimes like to think. “You are my friends if you do as I command you.” (John 15:14). The convincing power of the gospel is not in its syllogistic…See More

Hello Evangelical Friends. I have just de-listed from the Liberal Quakers. I pray that they still know me. But I pray that I will know you.

Where ministry meets livelihood
Listen to this post: http://www.turtleboxstories.com/audio/whereministrymeets.mp3 Yesterday was sandwiched between a traditional Bible study and a new women's group on astrology and archetypes. Could I have chosen anything more different? One is an ongoing study of Luke that my mother initiated in December with, mostly, retired women. I felt called to join because when else might I have the chance to do a Bible study…See More
