FORWARD IN FAITHFULNESS
We are a network of Quakers who work for inner transformation and collective renewal. Our goal is to motivate one another toward revitalization, so people of faith may become creative, relevant, and thriving for years to come.
MORE RESOURCES
We borrow the phrase "multi-age inclusion" from Emily Provance. Emily travels in the ministry with support from the Fifteenth Street Meeting (NYYM). She narrates a series of blog posts that identify some of our cultural problems in the Religious Society of Friends. While these are specific to Quakers, they can also be useful to any faith group working for life-giving cultural change.
