Ready to Roll for the New Year!

This site is under construction. We anticipate launching it in 2011, with articles, book and movie reviews, and links to what's happening in the interfaith and ecumenical movement from a Quaker perspective. Meanwhile, please check out our website at universalistfriends.org.

You'll find lots of great stuff: introspective pieces from renowned Friends, historical overviews and incisive book reports. Read about universalism in other cultures, and the effort to include all peoples. As QUF continues to put ever more content online, the Quaker Library will grow to become a great index of contemporary Quaker writings.

For a youtube video exploring how Quakers feel about other faiths, see:

Mission of QUF

The work of the Quaker Universalist Fellowship expresses Friends' belief that there is a spirit of universal love in every person, and that a compassion-centered life is therefore available to people of all faiths and backgrounds.

Through publications, lectures, and conferences the Quaker Universalist Fellowship seeks to encourage appreciation of the diverse paths to that spirit available in humankind's various spiritual cultures, to overcome discord, and to foster openness and listening among people of different religious faiths. In carrying out this work we cooperate with Friends from every branch of Quakerism.

We seek, or create, opportunities for all Friends to engage in constructive dialogue among Quakers and with representatives of other spiritual traditions, in the hope that religious faith, although diverse, will become a force which unites rather than divides the human family. We seek to nurture that unity through lives of simplicity, humility, justice, mercy, and peace so that it becomes a beacon drawing together the human family in love and service to all earthly life.
