Learn about the recent Quaker Hymn Contest sponsored by Latin American Quakers in the FWCC – COAL Region (Central America, Cuba and Mexico), inspired by World Quaker Day. In addition, we’ll share some worship, discuss songs old and new, and maybe learn a simple song. Some time in break out rooms for worship-sharing will be included and we hope to leave you with resource ideas to bring back to your worship spaces. All are welcome!

We also get to hear briefly from Melinda Wenner Bradley and Nate Macy who will be presenters at the QLC’s Sing A New Song: Music & Ministry (4th annual Quaker Leadership Conference on April 16-18. Register and find out more info about that event at qlcsinganewsong.eventbrite.com).
