Dear Friends,
Please join us on Thursday, September 3, 2026 at 7PM BST/2PM EDT for our next conversation. Harvey Gillman will be presenting on the topic of “Transtheism.”
“I came to Friends almost fifty years ago to embrace the sacred through silence, community, and a way of life. Though a man of many words I find words limited. I am neither theist, nor non-theist, nor atheist. I dare to talk of transtheism, but this is only a temporary oasis on the way to somewhere else. “
Friends might like to look that up in advance on Wikipedia: ‘Transtheism’.
We look forward to a lively conversation and hope that you will come and add your voice.We welcome your thoughts about how to make these conversations more meaningful. Address your comments to the working group at nontheistfriend@gmail.com.
If you have not already done so, we urge you to visit our website at: https://nontheist-quakers.org.uk/
Yours,
NonTheist Friends Network Steering Committee

Thank you for the email about the Zoom meeting. Will I get an email with the Zoom log in?
You would get the zoom link if you have emailed to register – clerk@nontheist-quakers.org.uk or nontheistfriend@gmail.com
Now I come to think of it, the zoom link should have been in the email you received unless you were referring to an email today informing you of the post on the website that you had signed up to follow – which doesn’t get you the zoom link!
