World Quaker Day 2026
4 Oct 2026
The theme for World Quaker Day 2026 is Let Peace Be Among Us, with the supporting Bible passage Hebrews 12:14, “Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy.”
FWCC is planning a massive online Meeting for Worship bringing together Friends across borders and Quaker traditions with a shared focus on peace.
The timings for the worship are listed below, lasting for 8+ hours to span multiple time zones. Each hour of worship will be dedicated to a part of the world where prayers for peace are particularly needed. You’re welcome to join for as little or as long as you’d like, either individually or with your local meeting or worship group.
You can register online for more information and the Zoom link nearer the time at worldquakerday.org, where you’ll also find further resources including a poster, songs and prompts.
