Portishead Quaker Meeting (near Bristol) Portishead Preparative Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (quakers) http://www.digitalbristol.org/members/quakers/Portishead.html
Extractions: Thornbury A peaceful 17th century, grade II listed, thatched meeting house with a separate small hall, available for hire, set in the burial ground. People who come to worship for the first time tell us how peaceful the Meeting House is. Though there are not many of us, and sadly children don't come often, we offer a warm welcome to everyone. Meeting lasts for an hour after which visitors particularly are invited to stay for refreshments. Our Hall is available on Sunday mornings for use as a children's room and prior notice of visiting children will allow us time for suitable preparation. The Hall is also used by a local playgroup in term time (mornings) and by several local groups meeting (usually fortnightly) in the evenings. Details of availability and hire charges can be obtained from John Rickard on 01275 842950. Portishead Friends outreach includes their long-standing co-operation with the other churches in the town on issues of joint concern.
Street Corner Society - Introducing Chicago Area Quakers An informal history of Friends in the Chicago area. Remarks to Friends World Committee for Consultation, 3/18/00, by David H. Finke. http://www.strecorsoc.org/docs/chicago.html
Extractions: Zion, Illinois, 3/18/00 by David H. Finke At the invitation of Chicago Metropolitan General Meeting of which I'm a member although I live in Missouri I've been asked to tell you something about us. In this time I cannot pretend to do a real "History" of Friends around here, and I call attention to a number of displays and books that may do that better. However, what I would like to do in the next 20-30 minutes is to share with you my own impressions of what I call "The Flavor" of Chicago-area Quakerism, by reference to its history and that expression through its Monthly Meetings. And in that, I think I have discerned a number of key themes which are very close to what is central in FWCC. Come on this survey with me through about a century and a half, and then learn more by visiting and worshipping with Friends from this area Don't just take my word for these conclusions. Although we know there were scattered Quakers living in Chicago as early as 1852, our story as a Society of Friends begins in 1864, and by the initiative not of Chicagoans
Brigflatts Meeting House Historic Quaker meeting house in Cumbria, England, an area which played a key role in the history of the Religious Society of Friends (quakers). http://www.visitcumbria.com/sl/brigmh.htm
Extractions: Grid Ref 96: SD 642912 The Quaker tradition has long been influential in Sedburgh. The Quaker Meeting House at Brigflatts, which was an industrial community, is two miles south of Sedbergh . It was built in 1675, and is the oldest meeting house in the North of England. It retains many of the original oak furnishings in an atmosphere of peace and tranquillity. George Fox, who was the founder of the Quaker movement (The Society of Friends), preached in the district on many occasions, sometimes addressing the listeners from beneath a yew tree in St Andrew's churchyard. His most famous meeting was held out-of-doors. Step inside and soak up the atmosphere of over 300 years. Little has changed. Open daily, Oct - Easter 11.00 am to dusk, Easter - September 11.00 am to 6.00 pm.

Extractions: Deism and the Quakers From John Punshon's Portrait in Grey: A Short History of the Quakers For more information on Quaker Beliefs, go to Chuck Fager's Quaker Theology Page Pages 158-167. "A Divided Inheritance" This discusses the different theological tendencies within Quakerism. Quakers have never formally adopted the "Trinity," but the three streams of Christian theology can be found in Quakerism. Deism, the "doctrine that God is quite other than the cosmos and entirely transcends it. Having created it as a closed system, he remains aloof from its operations and lets it go its own way" (160). This is God the creator, the "father." People who adhere to this theology tend to stress rational thought and science as a way of discovering truth, they tend to also place great emphasis on classic religious texts. Orthodox Quakerism is more sympathetic to Deism. For deists "the light was the inherent rational capacity of the mind." (161) Evangelical, the focus on Christ as the unique Son of God, the Redeemer who died for our sins. People are sinners who can be saved only by accepting Jesus as their Savior. This approach tends to stress charismatic leadership, strong emotional appeals and adherence to doctrine. At certain points, this has been strong in Quakerism, and it is stronger among Friends with Pastoral form of worship. Pantheist, the "the view that God and the universe are one entity, and that the divine is wholly immanent in the creation." (160). This is God as Spirit, as Holy Ghost, as Sanctifier. Silent and unprogrammed worship is most compatible with this theology, since it facilitates awareness of the spiritual dimensions of reality. It also leads to Universalism (as we define it, the belief that all religions are means to approach a the same spiritual reality) since many other faiths also practice this form of spiritual worship, e.g., Buddhism, Hinduism. Gandhi's book "All Religions Are True" is consistent with this philosophy. Pantheist Quakers view the "light [as] the direct operation of God upon the soul, something which the deist cosmology in principle refused to admit." (161).
