2025 Summer School Theme:
Building Bridges Through Service
This year’s theme calls each of us to action— to learn to build lasting bridges in our community - not just through words, but through deeds inspired by spiritual principles.
“The world is undoubtedly facing a great crisis and the social, economic, and political conditions are becoming more complex. Should the friends desire to take the lead in informing the world, they should start by educating themselves and understand what the troubles and problems really are which baffle the mind. It is in these Summer Schools that this training should be provided for the friends.”
