Dublin Area Quaker Community - DAQC

@FWCCWorldOffice Thank you FWCC for coordinating this, I hope others will follow suit.

FWCC and a number of other Quaker organisations will no longer post on Twitter/X. Learn why at fwcc.world/leaving-twitte… and find us on Bluesky at bsky.app/profile/global…, or on Facebook and Instagram by searching 'globalquakers'.

Quakers in Ireland and DAQC have decided to join the Twitter eXodus. In seeking to live out our Testimonies of Integrity, Peace, Equality, Simplicity, we have found it increasingly difficult to operate on the Twitter/X platform. You'll find us in the BlueSky place @DAQCFriends

The produce of the earth is a gift from our gracious creator to the inhabitants, and to impoverish the earth now to support outward greatness appears to be an injury to the succeeding age. John Woolman, 1772. #DAQC #QuakersDublin #QuakersIreland

We would love to see you this Saturday 30th November 2024 between 11.30 am and 12.30 pm outside the gates of St Stephen’s Green, at the top of Grafton Street. Please do come along and join us to silently stand for Peace, even for a few minutes! #QuakersDublin #DAQC

Without deep listening and gentle loving speech it is very difficult to move towards peace. Peace will only become a reality, when world leaders come to negotiations with the ability to hear the suffering at the root of all conflicts. Thich Nhat Hanh

Great opportunity at Friends School Lisburn

Quakers have a set of Queries for Serious Consideration that reflect the Quaker way of life, reminding us of the ideals we may seek to attain. This is the 11th Query. Do you promote the cause of Truth and spread the message of Christ? #DAQC #QuakersDublin #FaithinAction
