Ye are called to peace

“Ye are called to peace, therefore follow it; that peace is in Christ…. All that pretend to fight for Christ are deceived; for his kingdom is not of this world, therefore his servants do not fight.”

— George Fox, 1658
Cofounder of the Religious Society of Friends

This week’s messages are guest edited by Friends World Committee for Consultation (FWCC) who are planning a global online meeting for worship on October 4th (World Quaker Day). The theme is Let Peace Be Among Us. The plan is to reach across many time zones from the Americas to Aotearoa/New Zealand.

Each hour of worship will be dedicated to, and hosted by, a different part of the world where prayers for peace are particularly needed. We’d love for you to join us. Register here to get involved.
