Imagining a future Quaker universe
“Imagine the Quaker universe of hyper-local monthly meetings, residential and educational institutions, Yearly Meetings, national and international organizations imitating the seamless integration of natural living systems. Imagine their having the unified capacity to look out over regional, national, and international landscapes and identify ‘pressure points’ where Friends could make strategic interventions and offer Quaker approaches to shift critical discourse.
Imagine Friends and a constellation of Friends’ organizations who deeply understand the complex challenges now facing humanity standing shoulder to shoulder looking into the future with sober eyes and a Spirit-led optimism.”
