It would go a great way to caution & direct people in their use of the world, that they were better studied & known in the creation of it. For how could man find the confidence to abuse it, while they should see the Great Creator stare them in the face, in all and every part thereof? William Penn

Ever wondered how Quaker Oats got their branding? They were not affiliated with Friends but in 1877 the company chose the image of a Quaker man to evoke feelings in their customers of purchasing a great product for a fair price. Quaker reputation for honesty turned them into a mascot!

Midday Morning Prayer: Loving God, as the day comes rushing at us, help us to stay close to that Divine Center within that offers us a space to reflect, listen deeply, and respond to the day. When we feel overwhelmed, help us to pause and recover our sense of being and soul. Amen.

We are a people that follow after those things that make for peace, love and unity; it is our desire that others’ feet may walk in the same, and do deny and bear our testimony against all strife, and wars, Margaret Fell 1660 #Peace #FaithinAction #DAQC #QuakersDublin #QuakersIreland

Today's Daily Quaker Message. Read the full quote: dailyquaker.com

Why do Quakers call themselves “Friends?” Early Quakers called themselves “Friends of the Truth,” and sometimes “Friends of the Lord” (or “God” or “Christ”). It was shortened to “Friends” even then. The name “Religious Society of Friends” started to be used in the late 18th century.

There's lots of pretty wild flowers popping up at Temple Hill Burial Ground, Blackrock, Co Dublin and song birds singing their hearts out. It's a very special place to visit.
