Yardley Friends invite you to join them on Sunday, September 28th at 11:30 am when Friend Rick Durham will make a presentation concerning the historical foundations of Quakers in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Rick’s presentation will include:
• How George Fox explored early New Jersey and performed a “miracle.”
• How Quakers settled New Jersey as the “Homeland of their Dreams.”
• How William Penn wrote the first New Jersey Constitution.
• How Quakers suffered the persecution of Patriots and Loyalists alike.
• How a Quaker spy saved George Washington.
• How the Peace Testimony of Friends survived.
You can join Friends first for meeting for worship from 10:00 to 11:00am, and then stay for refreshments and the program.
Everyone is welcome!
