This short piece describes a few calendars published by Friends or Friends' institutions such as AFSC for several consecutive years. We plan to send this to journals such as Quaker Life and Friends Journal in the hope that this might be presented as a short article or as a letter to the editor. We hope this letter provides clarity. We also anticipate publication of Selections from the Religious Poems of John Greenleaf Whittier before the end of 1999, or early in the coming year. Recently, new calendars are produced with an additional focus on publicity and outreach.
Challenges arise if titles are inadvertently duplicated, even in part.
The purpose of this short review article is clarification of titles and format of calendars produced by Friends. The following calendars are of interest to Friends and others beyond the boundaries of particular Yearly Meetings or traditions, and have been produced for several consecutive years. This plain calendar emphasizes the scriptural basis for Friends' beliefs, as well as ministry expressed through the writings of early, 18th, 19th, and some 20th century Friends. It has been published annually since 1885. The calendar and other publications are available through direct orders from the Tract Association's Office or through Quaker bookstores.
