RMYM celebrates 50 years in August.

RMYM celebrates 50 years of ministry—On Saturday, August 11, a day of celebration is planned at Quaker Ridge Camp (Woodland Park, CO) to review, remember, and celebrate a half century of ministry in RMYM. Attendees will gather for a brunch, reception, and worship celebration at the close of Rocky Mountain Yearly Meeting sessions.

Friends, families, and guests are welcome and invited to attend, particularly those who have been to Quaker Ridge in the past. The camp has undergone extensive renovations in the last decade. The occasion will offer an excellent opportunity to remember the past and step into the future.

During the two-hour reception, churches will host displays and Friends will be encouraged to share memories of the Yearly Meeting community over the years. A special commemorative tapestry has been commissioned and 250 were ordered for sale during the event. Friends who cannot attend the celebration may order the tapestries for $35 each, plus shipping.

In addition to looking backward, RMYM Friends also look forward to discover what God has planned for the Yearly Meeting in the next 50 years.
