George Fox Birthday Gifts

Published: July 6, 2024

Dear Friends,

This month (described as “the month called July” in George Fox’s Journal) marks 400 years since the birth of Fox, the co-founder of Quakerism.

In case you'd like to plan a celebration, please enjoy recordings of all the songs in our new World Quaker Songbook. Friend Amy Duckett Wagner, from Philadelphia Yearly Meeting, has kindly recorded these songs for us, which we've arranged in a YouTube playlist.

Click here for the songbook.

Also, the Quaker Tapestry Museum is also offering to ship high-quality prints of their Quaker tapestry panels worldwide, which you can order in celebration of George Fox’s birthday.
