Yearly Meeting 2024: Preparation - part two
The Friend reports from the first days of Yearly Meeting preparation sessions and special interest meetings
At a session on Alternative forms of Quaker community, Jude Acton and Rachel Matthews, of Quaker Life, talked about what central support was available for Friends whose Quaker communities didn’t map exactly onto the Local Meeting/Area Meeting structure. For the seventeen Friends gathered this referred mostly to their online gatherings, while others represented neurodivergent Quakers or groups of writers.
