by Margaret Slavin, Judith Brown and Manuela Popovici 14th September 2018

One Friend summed up this year’s Canadian Yearly Meeting (CYM) with these words: ‘We welcomed Evangelical Francophone Friends, engaged in a week-long reflection on right relations with Indigenous peoples, and really listened to Young Friends and Young Adult Friends. God is calling us to widen our circle and to challenge the barriers we unconsciously have placed on our welcome.’
