Extractions: format this article to print RELIGIOUS SOCIETY OF FRIENDS . Few members of the Religious Society of Friends, commonly known as Quakers, were to be found in Texas until after the Civil War. qv Their early opposition to slavery qv led the Friends to bypass the Gulf Coast states. Several monthly meetings (organizational units) of Friends made known their opposition to accepting slaveholding Texas into the Union, primarily because Texas reserved the right to divide into five slave states. Furthermore, a proslavery, antiabolitionist newspaper, the Austin Anti-Quaker qv appeared in March 1842. Several individual Quakers made their way to Texas before the 1870s, however, the most famous being Mifflin Kenedy. qv Early twentieth-century Quaker groups were in Lipscomb County (1910) and in View Point, Texas. Today there are two major Quaker organizations in the state, the Kansas Yearly Meeting, the earlier group, and the South Central Yearly Meeting. In 1964 the Kansas Yearly Meeting sponsored the Friends School in San Antonio. The school, located in the former Southern Christian College buildings, offered education, housing, and guidance to emotionally disturbed children who had been rejected by other child-care agencies. In 1970 approximately eighty students were being cared for. In 1963 the Kansas Meeting Friends joined an interdenominational group and established headquarters in Friendswood for CABCO (the Central African Broadcasting Company), known in Europe and Africa as CORDAC. The station, located in Bujumbura, Burundi, on the northeast shore of Lake Tanganyika, broadcasts daily missionary programs in five languages to a audience possibly as large as ten million.
The School Of The Spirit - A Quaker Ministry Of Prayer And Learning A ministry of prayer and learning which is a project of the Ministry and Worship Committee of Philadelphia Yearly Meeting of the religious society of friends (Quakers). It offers adult education sessions on such topics as Being a Spiritual Nurturer, and Contemplative Living and Prayer. http://www.quakerinfo.com/sos.shtml
Extractions: Within the Religious Society of Friends, the traditional meetings of ministers and elders were sometimes referred to as a "school of the Spirit." In gathered worship Friends learned to discern the movement of the Inward Teacher and test their discernment with one another. This practiced listening extended into every aspect of their lives. Living into this way of being is not always easy; we often resist, preferring to ignore God's promptings into an ever-deepening union. But the still, quiet voice will not be silent, and with discipline and with the support of others we can find ourselves becoming more faithful. This ministry offers two forms of program to deepen our faithfulness: the two-year program of prayer and study On Being a Spiritual Nurturer , first offered in 1990 and now with its fifth class; and the tradition of

Experience and discover for themselves - in action - the Quaker testimonies on equality, truth, non - violence and simplicity, and Quaker ways of working and business methods. Express their imagination and creativity. Celebrate their differences, abilities and potential. Challenge society's stereotypes of race, gender, age, disability, sexuality, culture and class; to work for greater justice, tolerance, societal change, and environmental concerns.

When you flee the cross, you lose the power...though the Cross seems foolish, stand in it...though it be a stumbling block to the wise, stand in it.
