Pendle Hill’s Reading Group returns! Our Reading Group focuses on Pendle Hill pamphlets and other Quaker readings, gathering to consider queries about the reading in a spirit of worship sharing.

In January, we will be reading our recent pamphlet Radical Transformation: Long Overdue for the Religious Society of Friends (PHP #476) by Vanessa July. You can purchase a copy of this popular publication at the following links:

PH pamphlet (printed edition)
Amazon Kindle (e-book)
Barnes & Noble Nook (e-book)

This pamphlet is based on the author’s 2021 Stephen G. Cary Memorial Lecture at Pendle Hill (YouTube video).
