#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

I've been enjoying reading this to my daughter today :) #ubuntu #worldquakerday

[Friends Journal @friendsjournal]

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.”

Many of the early Jesus followers were African

On the day of Pentecost, Africans were among those who spoke of God's work in their own languages

Jesus himself spent part of his life in Africa

Let's learn from African Christianity
