Question Who are we?

"We hold ourselves open to the Light and reach for the divine center of our being. We know the center to be a place of peace, love, and balance, where we are at one with the universe and with each other."

"We know from experience that revelation is continuing and that a divine power is at work in the world today, healing, guiding, gathering, and transforming. We call this power God, the Light, Christ, the Seed, the Inward Teacher. By whatever name it is known, its nature is love. It draws us toward a life of integrity, simplicity, equality, community, and peace."

"Our meetings are grounded in silent, expectant waiting and are spontaneous and open. When someone feels led to share a message, it is received in the gathered silence."

Answer: We are Quakers, and many of us have believed such things since the 1600's. (Note: All of the above quotes came from a Quaker source. Sound familiar?)

Check out Friends Committee on National Legislation - A Quaker Lobby in the Public Interest if you are interested in what Quakers in America are doing today to promote peace and nurturing of the Earth.

Peace and Love,
BridgeBuilder

This especially resonated with me.
