Primitive Christianity Revived, Again
Tomorrow I will attend my 1st meeting in over 12 years. I'm very excited! I truly do not know what to expect. There was no contact information for the meeting. It is held at a Lutheran Church less than 10 miles away. I recently discovered this meeting when I went to the Quaker finder directory. Never saw it listed before. They call it a *Worship Group* I wonder how many Friends will be there. I have longed to be with Friends for so long, I can't believe that I'm actually going.
I'm trying not to have any expectations and just roll with it. I will check-in tomorrow and let you know how it went.
Namaste,
Stephanie

Comment by Stephanie Piddock on 7th mo. 20, 2011 at 8:18pm Thwarted once again!! I have been busy working in preparation of a 3 day stand down this weekend for homeless vets and couldn't get away to go to Meeting. I now have to wait until the 1st Wednesday of the month. Stay tuned!!
Keep trying. 30 years ago, I found my way back to Quakerism through a worship group forming in the town where I lived. Let us know how it goes.
Comment by Deborah on 7th mo. 23, 2011 at 12:18pm I understand your excitement! Tomorrow my husband and I will finally attend our first meeting in Barnesville, it's been such a long wait and being patient for an opportunity to go at times has been challenging. There has been nothing but good words from others who attend the meeting and I am looking forward to meeting everyone. It has been difficult to find where one "fits" (as I heard another member here mention) and I have often felt like the cheese that stands alone in the little nursery rhyme lol.
I too will post about our experience. I hope yours will be wonderful, filled with the presence of the Spirit and with new friends.
blessings,
Deborah
