Connect with young Quakers… Online!

/in , /by

Canadian Young Friends Yearly Meeting has been hosting online Meetings for Worship and Worship-Sharing for Young Friends regularly during the pandemic. The schedule for these meetings can be found here: yf.quaker.ca/calendar

We will likely continue to offer online opportunities for fellowship after social distancing measures have been relaxed, and we have begun to plan in-person activities. We would love to connect with any Young Friends within Canada who are not yet involved with us!
