About this month’s session
Query: How do we include, celebrate, and support f/Friends that identify as trans/gender non-conforming?
In the session we will learn and discuss:
- Trans Day of Visibility (TDOV) is an international holiday celebrated each year on March 31
- In what ways can those in the NCFM community include, celebrate, and support those we know who are trans/gender non-conforming?
What is the “Seeking Quakers” series?
Interested in learning more about Quakers? Interested in deepening your sense of Truth and the Inner Light with Friends? Join us at 7:00pm on the 1st Wednesday of the month to explore a query (that’s Quakerspeak for an open-ended question) and related readings.
We meet in person and online at the same time, a hybrid event.
Participate at your comfort level. Companionable listeners are welcome. No Quaker experience is required. We also welcome Quakers from all branches of Quakerism.
Registration or RSVP are not required. Seeking Quakers may be on hiatus during some summer months, see the calendar for more information.
