FGC Weekly Virtual Worship for Friends of Color

  • May 18, 2025
  • 7:00 PM (EDT)

In 2018, Friends General Conference began hosting virtual worship for People of Color. FGC established this practice as a result of a request by Friends of Color who participated in a retreat that summer. During that weekend Friends of Color expressed their pain of feeling oppressed in their meeting which caused them to stop attending. These Friends were clear that Quakerism and worship was core to their lives and wanted an opportunity to continue to worship in community. FGC agreed to support these Friends by providing virtual worship on Zoom. These worship services are provided as a place for Friends of Color to come together in community and worship in an environment with Friends who experience marginalization in their lives and Quaker meetings because they are a Person of Color.

Evening worship every Wednesday and every third Sunday at 7:00 p.m. For more information and to register, visit https://fgc.tfaforms.net/4812071
