NYM Journal header: Friends Enlightening Friends

Beginning July 2025 we will be publishing content online on a rolling basis, rather than together in a scheduled publication. Look forward to more genres such as videos and podcasts on the NYM Journal site at journal.northernyearlymeeting.org! New pieces will be announced in the monthly e-news.

The NYM Journal, “Friends Enlightening Friends” was initiated in February 2019 through Spring 2024, and has been published 2-3 times/year on our website.


Mission of the NYM Journal: To inform & inspire Friends with examples of Quaker faith and practice.

*You can submit content to nymjournal@gmail.com if you wish, although we don’t know when it will be published.

Content suggestions: (these will be revised to include more genres once we find a new editor)

  1. Personal reflections & articles about people’s work & experience as a Quaker.
  2. Reflections or stories about projects or efforts your Meeting or Worship Group is involved with.
  3. Examples of creative works include: Reflections, poetry, personal insights, stories of personal life experiences, expressions of concern about current affairs, book reviews, letters to the editor. Children’s work is welcome.
  4. We encourage original work from Northern Yearly Meeting Friends, but we will accept some submissions from elsewhere if it’s relevant to us or something that an individual in NYM is involved with.

Please limit articles to 1500 words, and feel free to include a suggested image. Ideally all submissions should be in MS Word or compatible word processor, single spaced. Contact nymjournal@gmail.com with questions.
