This list is for you if you

  • are looking for resources for a community forum in your monthly or quarterly meeting, send out a message!
  • want to report on work your monthly or quarterly meeting is doing, inspire us!
  • want to share reflections on the spiritual grounding of this work, deepen us!
  • want to forge connections with other Quakers in New England engaged in work similar to your own, reach out!
  • are sending out an action alert (please include information on how interested Friends can receive further updates off-list).

Please, note that this is a public listserv and not a secure group listPlease don't share sensitive information on the list.
