Keith B. has reminded us of Section 27.42 of Quaker Faith & Practice: ‘Another testimony held by early Friends was that against the keeping of ‘times and seasons’.  We might understand this as part of the conviction that all life is sacramental; that since all times are therefore holy, no time should be marked out as more holy; that what God has done for us should always be remembered and not only on the occasions named Christmas, Easter and Pentecost’ but we welcome the opportunity for Friends to celebrate on this day.
