NYYM Epistle From Summer Sessions

 

To all Friends everywhere,

 

Friends gathered at Oakwood Friends School and over Zoom for the 2024 New York Yearly Meeting Summer Sessions to ask the question: “Where is the love?”

 

With great joy, we felt love in intergenerational play; in deep, worshipful spaces; and in fresh approaches to spiritual exploration. Love shone through tearful smiles as we remembered beloved Friends.
