This morning I posted 2 status updates on my QuakerQuaker page, the 1st:
"Two years ago today, 23.04.2012, whilst at World Gathering of Friends in Kabarak, Kenya I realised I was a convergent Friend."
I am Friend through convincement, a Christian from the mystical tradition but I also love working ecumenically, and doing out-reach work.

17/02/2013 I worshipped with 5 (6?) others in expectant waiting with the conservative flavour of Friends. Although, I found it hard to settle initially because I had not come to worship with my heart and mind fully prepared.
There was however a "brief" period of where I lost sense of time and was gathered and felt the presence. Although not moved to minister, I did think about how am I being "Salt" at the moment (Matthew 5) . A few days later I still cannot answer that… Continue

"Yes, I've noticed that the tendency for Quakers here in England is quite progressive. NOT that I want to return to my conservative Baptist days, but more focus on the reason for Quaker's existence. :-)"

Hello, Christopher!
Willkommen im die HERR Jesu Christie!
Thank ye for accepting our Friend Invitation. Sorry I write and speak in a foreign manner or I should say an obsolete way. I know a wee bit of German, PA German, Scots Brogue, and middle English with the olde spellings as well. Hope I do not confuse thee much. I hope and trust to be a good Friend unto thee.
Blessing to thee.
Timothy

Hello, Christopher! I think I remember you from a discussion list some years ago: Dry Clean Only? Were you in northern Germany at that time?
