IMYM Intervisitation on Immigration and Border Concerns

In June 2007 the Yearly Meeting approved a program of educational and worshipful inter-visitation within the Yearly Meeting that consists of grounding in the spirit of our testimonies, grounding in the experience of our daily lives, and grounding in the shared experience of others. This is to be carried out by Intermountain Friends at the invitation of monthly meetings and worship , and in cooperation with local Friends active in Peace and Social Concerns, AFSC, FCNL and related projects as appropriate. This folder contains supporting materials for this project.
