The Religious Society of Friends also referred to as the Quaker Movement was founded in England in the 17th century by George Fox. He and other early Quakers or Friends were persecuted for their beliefs which included the idea that the presence of God exists in every person. Quakers rejected elaborate religious ceremonies didn't have official clergy and believed in spiritual equality for men and women. Quaker missionaries first arrived in America in the mid-1650s. Quakers who practice pacifism played a key role in both the abolitionist and women's rights movements. New England Yearly Meeting officially the New England Yearly Meeting of Friends is a body of the Religious Society of Friends Quakers founded in 1661 and headquartered in Worcester Massachusetts. It includes Friends from the New England region of the United States. New England Yearly Meeting NEYM is part of both Friends General Conference and Friends United Meeting—two broader bodies of Friends—as well as Friends World Committee for Consultation and the Friends Peace Teams. Sixty-eight monthly meetings are associated with NEYM. Most of the constituent monthly meetings are in the unprogrammed tradition which means that they meet for silent worship in which any participant may share whatever they believe the Spirit of God leads them to say. Others are in the programmed tradition which means that they have a pastor who leads the meeting and plans ahead of time what will be said and done. Yearly meeting sessions are held once a year usually in the first week of August. The 355th annual sessions were held during August 1-6 2015 at Castleton University in Castleton Vermont. Other past locations include Bryant University in Smithfield Rhode Island; Stonehill College in North Easton Massachusetts; Wheaton College in Norton Massachusetts; Bowdoin College in Brunswick Maine; and Hampshire College in Amherst Massachusetts. NEYM publishes a quarterly newsletter entitled The New England Friend. For many years the archives for NEYM were housed in the Rhode Island Historical Society Library in Providence Rhode Island. In 2016 they were moved to the Special Collections and University Archives at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. New England Yearly Meeting of Friends paperback
