Paul Parker, recording clerk for British Quakers, addressed the yearly meeting in Germany last week about the contemporary relevance of Quakerism. German and English versions of his text are available here. 

Building on the theme What do we Quakers have to offer the world in these turbulent times? he spoke about his path to Quakerism, our experience, being visible and ministry “Mein Weg zu den Quäkern; unsere Quäkererfahrung beschreiben; Uns sichtbar machen; Zeugnis”
