Quakers in Bulgaria

One of the early Quakers, William Penn 1644-1718, once said that:

"Love is the hardest lesson in Christianity; but, for that reason, it should be most our care to learn it."

William Penn is known, of course, as the founder of Pennsylvania. He is also known as a famous Quaker and for his 'Great Treaty' with the Delaware Native Americans - the Leni Lenape.

”I desire to gain your Love and Friendship by a kind, Just and Peaceable Life" he wrote to them and he followed up with that desire with his "holy experiment."

 
Penn's holy experiment was his plan to establish a society that was godly, virtuous and exemplary for all of humanity. In 1681 he received the charter for the colony of Pennsylvania.
