The program, “Awakening the Dreamer, Changing the Dream”, facilitated by Young Adult Friends, is given in preparation for Yearly Meeting sessions, and is related to the Friends World Committee for Consultation (FWCC) World Conference to be held next year with the theme “Being Salt and Light: Living the Kingdom in a Broken World”.
Four questions are considered:
- Where are we?
- How did we get here?
- What’s possible for the future?
- Where do we go from here?
If possible, participating in both parts of the program is important, Childcare will be provided if requested by July 15. A donation of $10 for the FWCC Travel Fund is requested, but not required. Make checks out to Portland Friends Meeting, earmarked for FWCC Travel Fund. This will help Latin American Friends attend the Conference.
