OMG - did you sense and understand that?!
This is Christ's News Team: Local managers/overseers, reporters/prophets, and editors/elders at God's service. For the God of loving communication has a fierce way of providing it.

Stature: It has pleased the Court of Quaker Opinion to look to "Friends of Stature" for enlightenment and direction.
Nature: The truth that familiarity breeds contempt, or at least disregard, prevents such from being looked for "in(Meeting)house".
