Friends for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Concerns
is a North American Quaker faith community that affirms that of God
in all people. Gathering twice yearly for worship and play, we draw
sustenance from each other and from the Spirit for our work and life
in the world. We are learning that radical inclusion and radical
love bring further light to Quaker testimony and life.
