Re: [Cz-L] Translation

I think but am not absolutely sure, that the people who keep the
Toynbee Halle
are somehow affiliated with the "Seven day Adventists",
but are the descendants of the Subotniki.
This at least is the impression I got, when in 2006 a group of us
Czernowitzers,
visited the Toynbee Halle on a Saturday when they were holding prayers.
