Statement of Purpose for NPYM Website

North Pacific Yearly Meeting maintains a website in order to make information about the yearly meeting more widely accessible than would otherwise be possible. The Meeting also hopes to use the website to keep Pacific Northwestern Friends more engaged in activities of unprogrammed Friends of the area, and in issues facing our community.

Specifically, the Yearly Meeting sees the website as a means of:

  • Making it is easier for Friends outside the Pacific Northwest to find unprogrammed Friends meetings and activities in our area.
  • Helping members and attenders find opportunities to engage in the work or activities of the Yearly Meeting.
  • Facilitating registration for annual session.
  • Helping members and attenders connect with like-minded Friends on issues of concern, that the Yearly Meeting is engaged in
  • Helping Friends and others to find organizations engaged in activities and issues important to Pacific Northwestern unprogrammed Friends.

What was, will be again,
what has been, will be done again,
and there is nothing new under the sun!
