QUAKER YOUTH PILGRIMAGE 2010
LEADER APPLICATION

The Europe & Middle East Section and the Section of the Americas of FWCC organize the Quaker Youth Pilgrimage every two years. It is a four-week event for Young Friends. the Pilgrimage is an opportunity to promote loving understanding of our diversities within the Quaker worldwide family.

The 2010 pilgrimage will take place in the Northwestern United States from July 16 to August 13. The theme of the 2010 Pilgrimage is Living in the Garden of the Spirit echoing the early migration of Friends to the Northwestern US. The Pilgrimage will begin with youth flying in to Seattle, Washington, USA. The Pilgrimage will bring together 14 Young Friends (aged 16 to 18) from the Section of the Americas and 14 from the Europe & Middle East Section with two adult leaders from each section on a four-week journey of exploration. The pilgrimage will depart from Seattle on August 13, 2010. The four leaders will coordinate the activities of the Pilgrimage and have responsibility for the care of the pilgrims.

The leader selection process will include careful review of references, background checks, and a telephone interview. The committee hopes to complete the selection process in October.
