The Friends Preaching Initiative at Barclay College believes in the importance of empowering Preachers in Friends Churches to effectively proclaim the Gospel of Jesus. We would like to encourage Yearly Meeting/Regional leadership to sponsor an FPI Regional Gathering on the topic of preaching. We believe so strongly that these regional events can build integral relationships and provide powerful resources and training that we want to help remove some of the financial barriers that might prevent them from happening.  The FPI Regional Gathering Grant is available to Yearly Meetings/Regions for this type of gathering.

Grant Application Process:
