Grief and hope: marking two years of war in Ukraine
24 February marks two years since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and this anniversary reminds us to take stock of the enormous toll the war has taken. As well as those who have suffered death, injury or displacement in the war, this anniversary I'll be holding in my heart those who are courageously objecting to participating in it, or working for peace and nonviolent resistance, often at great risk.

A continuing Yearly Meeting? Strengthening spirit-led discernment
What happens at the moment? Yearly Meeting meets once a year and is the only meeting where all Friends can engage in spirit-led discernment on the most important issues for our Quaker community.

Not all Friends can attend Meeting for Sufferings, which is made up of representatives from each Area Meeting, General Meeting, and central and standing committee that makes up Quakers in Britain.

Reflections on the 2024 Labour Conference: change or business as usual?
If, as William Penn said, "true silence is to the spirit what sleep is to the body", then I suspect there are many attendees at the Labour conference in need of spiritual rest. As soon as I stepped onto the platform at Euston on Sunday morning the air of urgency was obvious. The train was packed with party members bumping shoulders with professional lobbyists, which made for some interesting overheard conversations.

Foundations and future: meeting for worship and the confident voice of early Friends
Quakers often talk about values being the attractive part of Quakerism. This is especially true when talking to young people and children. There is a sense in which our values, or testimonies, are where the action is, the place where Quakerism is at its most relevant and attractive.
