JUNIOR & MIDDLE SCHOOL FRIENDS CONFERENCES
Director, Karen Shanoski (Norristown MM) 610-539-7274, shanoski@comcast.net 2012-2013 marked the 35th ANNIVERSARY of these youth conferences! The Abington Quarter Junior Friends Conference (JFC) and Middle School Friends Conference (MSFC) provide a supportive and spiritual environment for young people 2nd through 8th grades who are members or attenders of one of the Abington Quarter Monthly Meetings. Young people in the Quarter high school age and older participate as counselors. The JFC program has always been held at the George School. The Youth Programs oversight committee was established in 1976 to nurture these conferences, and other youth programs in Abington Quarter. This committee seeks representation from all the Monthly Meetings in the Quarter. Does it Build Community? | Is it Kind? Is it Safe? |
