I’m convinced that Nikki Holland is the person God has anointed for the unique role of Director of Belize Friends Ministries. Nikki has a teachable spirit and a caring heart, making her an excellent fit for the work of shepherding and encouraging our gifted ministry team in Belize and helping each one of them unleash the full flowering of their giftedness in mission. Nikki has extensive international and cross-cultural experience and is a professional writer. Most important of all, she loves Jesus and seeks, with radiant energy, to live each day in faithfulness to God’s call in her life and in obedience to what God is doing in her community.

We were driving to my mother’s home in Nashville for our Christmas celebration, and my daughter reacted to a new construction project we hadn’t seen before. Obviously it had been quite a while since we drove south.

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.
