It’s Stand Up Awareness Week! 🏳️‍🌈

Led by #BelongTo, it's a time for schools, youth services, and communities to take a stand against bullying and show support for LGBTQ+ young people 🙌

We believe every young person deserves to feel safe, valued, and proud of who they are 💜

It is with sadness that we learn of the passing of Sister Stanislaus Kennedy. She tirelessly worked with compassion and dedication for those experiencing homelessness and for migrants as they negotiated challenges in their new country.

Look not out, but within… Remember it is a still voice that speaks to us in this day, and that it is not to be heard in the noises and hurries of the mind; but it is distinctly understood in a retired frame.

World Quaker Day - Love Your Neighbour - Gráigh do chomharsa
What languages are we missing?

Love my neighbour? Easy! I’ve no problem loving people regardless of their colour, ethnicity, disability or sexual orientation. But the person who gets on my nerves every time? Now that IS a challenge! That’s when I need to call on the Holy Spirit to help me find “that of God” in my neighbour ..

"In a world where division dominates, ‘loving your neighbour’ may be a radical and transformative act." Sue Saunders shares her thoughts about the #WorldQuakerDay theme of Love Your Neighbour.
