Jeanne Klovdahl from Canberra Quaker Meeting is getting ready for World Quaker Day

What does being a #Quaker mean to you? Meet our wonderful Friends World Committee Treasurer, Fenwick, and his partner Jenny, sharing their World Quaker Day sign for this Sunday. They say being a #Quaker to them means: 'listening to the spirit for the prompting of love and truth'. #WQD

Being a Quaker today means lots of zoom meetings

Meet Lindsey Fielder-Cook and her daughter Anna. Lindsey works on the 'Human Impacts of Climate Change' at QUNO in Geneva. Anyone who has the pleasure of knowing Lindsey, knows she lives out our #Quaker values, so we're not surprised their family #WQD2020 sign! ✨
