Southeastern Yearly Meeting
Southeastern Yearly Meeting brings together Friends from Meetings and Worship Groups in Florida and the surrounding region to share resources, deepen our faith, and work together to advocate for peace, social justice, and sustainability. SEYM holds events in person and online, gathering for spiritual renewal, collaboration, friendship, and fun. We connect Friends to the wider Quaker community, and write and publish the SEYM Faith & Practice.
Friends General Conference
Founded in 1900, Friends General Conference is an association of local and regional Quaker organizations primarily in the United States and Canada. What was once an association of seven yearly meetings holding a biennial “general conference” is now a coalition of sixteen yearly meetings. FGC organizes an annual Gathering of Friends, hosts a library of religious education resources, and provides support for Friends and meetings to become actively anti-racist. They also have an online bookstore where you can explore Quaker authors.
