Friends Global Ministries hosted their fourth annual conference this past weekend, June 28-30, at Plainfield Friends Meeting in Plainfield, Indiana. This marked the second time this conference has been held in Plainfield, as it is a viable central location for various groups of Friends who have left their native communities to come and live in North America. Part of Friends Global Ministries’ mission and ministry is to bring a diaspora of Friends together for the opportunity to feel connected, supported, and nurtured in worship as each immigrant community continues to strive to make its way in its new American location.

Friends Lugulu Mission Hospital's Adopt-a-Bed program saves an evangelist's life on Mt. Elgon. Missionary Jeremiah Akoto writes: "On Friday the 7th of August, in the morning, the first thing I did was to call FUM Africa Ministries Director John Muhanji. I explained to him the situation on the ground and requested for his advice as well as his assistance.

Throughout our history, the people known as Friends (or Quakers) keep rediscovering an essential and enduring truth: There is one who speaks to our most basic needs and most significant hopes—Christ Jesus the Lord. Both individually and communally, we are learning to know and follow the Voice that guides us in the way we should go. Together, we seek to understand and obey that truth which sets us free. As a people, we share in the experience of that powerful life which makes all things new. Maybe you are searching for an authentic and transforming faith and community to call home—if so, come in and join us as we seek to know and follow Christ.
Friends United Meeting commits itself to energize and equip Friends through the power of the Holy Spirit to gather people into fellowships where Jesus Christ is known, loved, and obeyed as Teacher and Lord.
