From Indianapolis First Friends: “Quaker Affirmation Curriculum”
“A curriculum envisioned, created, and developed as a way to guide and educate young Friends in their Quaker faith, similar to Confirmation Classes or Bar/Bat Mitzvah studies found in other faiths. For any Quaker Meeting or Church, the program is designed for middle and high-school students, but it can instruct and enliven Friends of any age.”
The materials on Indy First’s website, “are provided without representations or warranties of any kind. If you have questions or concerns about any of these materials, please contact us at office@indyfriends.org. We first used this in our own Meeting, and now we offer it as a free download for all. We welcome any donations you would like to make to this project. Please make a check payable to: Indianapolis First Friends Meeting, 3030 Kessler Boulevard East Drive, Indianapolis, IN 46220.”
“Through discussions and activities, this 10-month curriculum takes students on a journey of exploration through Quaker History, the testimonies, the different methods that Quakers use to discern God‚Äôs voice, Quaker theology, Quaker artists and changemakers, how Quakerism compares to other religions, as well as their own developing beliefs and spirituality.”
