Birmingham's Quaker Community
« on: August 18, 2008, 08:02:51 PM »
Woodbrooke is the Quaker Study Centre in the UK. It is based in the former family home of the local chocolate maker, George Cadbury, himself a Quaker. Since 1903 Woodbrooke has provided education for those of any faith or none from around the world. www.woodbrooke.org.uk

have been there, years ago...in a community hall there...[not for a Quaker thing, but interdenominational]
I like the early Quakers, and have a fair bit in common with them and their call for equality etc etc
Let those that love us, love us. And those that don't, may God turn their hearts. And, if He cannot turn their hearts, May He turn their ankles so we may know them by their limping!- Irish blessing
