World Quaker Day is an annual event where we celebrate the diversity of Quakerism around the world and build connections to make our community stronger.
For World Quaker Day 2023 – Sunday 1 October – we are each invited to Learn, Pray and Act, as the global family of Friends prepares to gather for the World Plenary Meeting.
The theme, both of the the World Plenary Meeting, and World Quaker Day will be ‘Living the spirit of ubuntu: Responding with hope to God’s call to cherish creation – and one another’.
