Thirsk Friends highlight choice

Series of events held

by Tara Craig 22nd August 2014

Quakers in Thirsk marked the centenary of the outbreak of world war one with a series of events highlighting the choices available at that time.

Thirsk Meeting saw the centenary as an opportunity to engage with non-Quakers and were inspired by Yearly Meeting recording clerk Paul Parker’s talk at the 2013 High Flatts conference on ‘inreach and outreach’.
