Julie Harlow of Friends House Moscow will be speaking to Lopez Island Friends Meeting on Zoom – and we are invited!
In light of Russia's devastating war on Ukraine, this promises to be an inspirational and eye-opening presentation, and very timely.
Julie will speak from her background of thirty-six years of travel in the Soviet Union and Russia, as well as twenty-eight years with the International Board of FHM. Learn how this Quaker center in Russia provides a Quaker presence and nurtures seekers throughout Russia, Ukraine, and beyond; supports programs promoting peace, conflict resolution and justice; and translates Quaker materials into the Russian language.
Julie will also discuss what problems from the Soviet period are still unresolved today, and what new ones they face. There will be time for Q&A.
