Quaker Morning: Daily Reflections

Greetings! For the Lenten season during 2021, we are reflecting on ideas of early Friends and including them in our prayers and thoughts throughout the day. To support our reflection, we are posting brief (1-2 minute) reflections and prayers for each day. You’ll find our Friendly Reflections for Lent calendar on our website for viewing or downloading.
