Young Adult Friends of North Pacific Yearly Meeting are Friends aged 18-35. They welcome and reach out to individuals who might be interested in being a part of their disbursed community. They hope that by asking Monthly Meetings and Worship Groups to extend their invitation into the community, they will find other Friends searching for a spiritual niche to call their own.
If you are, or know of anyone who might be, drawn to the idea of joining a group of young adult Friends to connect, communicate, and worship with, please let us know! We currently have a Facebook group, which is a great way to get connected and to be informed about our present issues. If you have any interest in joining our e-connection please visit us on Facebook.
Another excellent way to get involved is to join us when we physically meet a few times a year, most regularly in the summer at Annual Session and again around New Years. If you are financially insecure, fear not! Grants and travel scholarships are available to those who need them.
