Uplifting Young Adult Friends (YAFs)
Megan Cody
Upper Lodge
zoom host , leader Megan Cody
show description
Young Adult Friends (YAFs, ages 18-35ish) are present across regions, nations, and the world. While this may not seem to be the case, I can assure you otherwise. Multnomah Monthly Meeting has created a thriving YAF community of over 35 folks since 2024, and I am led to continue to find opportunities for YAFs to be uplifted within NPYM. I was fortunate to attend the Plenary and the YAF Pre-Gathering beforehand, and my relationship with Spirit and the Quaker community deepened significantly. I find myself wondering how YAFs can connect with one another across NPYM, and what it looks like for our meetings to become more inclusive and accommodating to our younger folks. Let's explore this subject and find ways to honor this Quaker cohort.
