We had lots of Friends folk this morning helping out with the Rise Against Hunger meal packing event at First Presbyterian Church. In a span of two hours, we packed 15,000 meals for food insecure neighbors around the world.

Last day in Arkansas with Be The Neighbor. We started our morning at Samaritan Community Center farm. The produce is donated to a client choice pantry. Our afternoon was spent at Crystal Bridges and then we spent some time at Havenwood. After some Chinese takeout, we honored our graduates, Ruthie and Chloe, and blessed our incoming seniors. Tomorrow we head home!

Day 3 with Be The Neighbor. We started out at the Northwest Arkansas Food Bank before having lunch at Coler Mountain Bike Preserve and walking to a nearby stream. We bought items in the afternoon for the little free pantry at FCC Bentonville & WaterWay and got to enjoy dinner with a Friends friend who now lives in Arkansas.

Day 2 in Arkansas with Be The Neighbor. We started out at New Beginnings, a transitional housing community for folks experiencing chronic homelessness. We spent the afternoon with Arkansas Justice Reform learning about efforts to end mass incarceration, and engaging in discussion about the ecosystem of community activism and the different roles we play.

First full day in Bentonville with Be The Neighbor. Today we volunteered with Clothed with Compassion, an organization dedicated to providing clothing for children and refugees. In the afternoon, we visited Venceremos and learned about local initiatives that advocate for workers in the poultry industry.

It’s been a long day, but we are HERE in Bentonville, Arkansas for a week of learning about economic justice through Be The Neighbor.

We left bright and early from Friends Church and made a pit stop to pick up Pastor Dan and two of our youth. From there we traveled on to Arkansas. FCC Bentonville have been great hosts so far. Tomorrow morning we’re heading out to work with two local organizations. Good night!

So, about that Friends Youth garden.

YOUTH RECAP

Proud pastor, here. Three of our youth graduated last week, and the church got the opportunity to hear from them about their next steps. Ruthie will be attending Brown to study Political Science, Chloe will be attending A&M to study kinesiology, and Kai with the cool hair is heading to cosmetology school!

We're so happy for y'all and look forward to all the wonderful things you'll do.

KAIROS RECAP

This past Sunday was the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia, and in honor of that, as well as the upcoming 30th anniversary of Friends Church becoming Open & Affirming, we heard from some Friends folks about their experiences being part of an ONA church.

Glenn was part of the original committee when the designation passed in 1996, and Abigail shared her perspective as a more recent member of Friends Church.

Shoutout to Stacy for providing dinner!

KAIROS RECAP:

Last Sunday, the Youth Group gathered and did a little garden & compost maintenance.

Afterward, we shifted into our lesson about youth climate justice activists Melati and Isabel Wijsen, whose advocacy work surrounding plastic pollution in the oceans contributed to a ban on single-use plastics in Bali, Indonesia.
