Hello and thanks for joining me Lori Kay here on the Crafty Narrative. Today's religious movement is probably one you have heard of but if you listen until the end you'll hopefully understand the method to my madness. Today we will be going over the history of the Quakers. After researching the Quakers or officially the Society of Friends I was blown away by all they accomplished, not only for other Quakers but for the world as a whole. Please stay until the end to hear about what books I've listened to and anything else of note.
