The meeting house provides an oasis of peace in the busy city. Quakers are spiritually mature in the wisdom of peace and stillness. So it was good to be around people that are of like minds and hearts with a deeper understanding of life.
I enjoyed a chai latte in the cafe and looking at books. They have a great selection of books on peace, spirituality, creation and climate. Some well being books for the children with personality building and understanding. Fun books to read like the "Giraffe that can't dance". I thought Leen and Celine from my Family Link Up would love this book so I bought one. I am thinking Juliya's daughter Vera will like this too ..So I will get another when in London next week or in my local bookshop.
The cafe shop sell Zaytoun Products Medjoul Dates the King of dates like toffee. Lovingly tended to and grown from Palestinian farmers ancient horticultural wisdom. So definitely bought a pack as so yummy.. These dates and other Zaytoun products have been featured on the celebrity chef James Martin Saturday morning show. Those dates are great for sticky toffee pudding recipe too!
I had gone with Gaza on my mind and it was amazing to stumble on a group of friends talking about Gaza in the courtyard. I was able to join them and this gave me so much support. I was so grateful of the sharing heart to heart.
Here are some photos to share ..
