Northern Yearly Meeting is our featured FGC Yearly Meeting and our new Ministry on Racism Support Specialist reflects on her experience at a Moral Monday event.

Vanessa Julye is the Ministry on Racism Program Coordinator and the Youth Ministries Program Coordinator at FGC.

As we come to the end of summer, and turn towards the school year and cooler weather, we invite you to join us in welcoming a new program, a new bookstore manager, and new opportunities for all of us through Friends General Conference.

This year’s FGC Gathering was a powerful reminder that the fullness of what it means to be a Friend can only be known when we share deeply and powerfully with each other the diversity of our experiences and needs.

FGC is pleased to introduce Lena Glickman

The Gathering gives us an
opportunity to be in fellowship around so much that is beautiful and nourishing as well as
around difficult truths with which we must wrestle if we are to grow spiritually and become the
beloved community.
