#Burundi, à l'occasion de la célébration de la Journée International des Quakers (Amis) notre église a été honorée d'accueillir le couple présidentiel et leurs enfants. En guise de reconnaissance, l'église leur a offert une vache appelée "Yabwami".

I just attended my first Meeting. It was indeed replenishing, and the conversation pre- and post was compassionate, progressive, and fascinating. Why did I wait so long? #Quakerism #Quaker @BritishQuakers #WorldQuakerDay

The theme of this year's World Quaker Day is "Living the Spirit of Ubuntu." In Southern and Central Africa’s book of faith and practice, Living Adventurously, ubuntu is described as being rooted in the “invisible circuit of connection between us all.”
