Thanks for this video. It’s good to actually see Friends and to hear your thoughts. As an isolated would-be Quaker for the last 28 years, this is a breakthrough. Friends silent meeting is one of the few experienced I have missed since leaving California and retiring to northern Portugal. I have readings, but not a regular time to meet in silence with others (and have pleasant and interesting conversations with at coffee afterwards). Thanks for using Facebook.
