Some 1000 Friends, representing one 150 Meetings, travelled to St. Joseph, Minnesota earlier this month for the Friends General Conference (FGC) gathering.

Friends from the United States were joined by Quakers from Canada, Belize and Guatemala for a week of worship, music, activism and community. The theme was: ‘Be Humble. Be Faithful. Be Bold’.
