The Palestine Track at New England Yearly Meeting's 2024 Sessions-Light Abounding

Held annually in New England for 364 years, some 400 Friends (Quakers) met for 6 days of education, inspiration and business. In August on the campus of Vermont State University in Castleton the New England-wide activist group, Quakers Advocating Justice for Palestine, and the Israel-Palestine Resource Group of New England Yearly Meeting designed and led programs with children and adults to better understand the troubles in Palestine and Israel. Our hope is to elevate awareness and inspire strategic action for a just peace in that region.
