Friends marked World Quaker Day by celebrating their deep connections ‘across cultures and Quaker traditions’.

The second annual World Quaker Day, organised by Friends World Committee for Consultation (FWCC), took place on Sunday 4 October. FWCC called on Friends ‘to remember that Quakers are worshipping through every time zone’ and to let their prayers ‘resound across the world’. The theme was ‘Living the transformation’, which looks forward to the FWCC world plenary meeting in Peru next year.
