This is the list serv of New York Fellowship of Reconciliation. New York FOR is comprised of people of faith who, believing in nonviolent solutions, meet to discuss issues, share information, gather sustenance through camaraderie, and seek a new direction for humankind.

While keeping abreast of peace and justice issues worldwide, New York FOR’s major focus has been the elimination of the economic sanctions imposed on Iraq and we worked albeit unsuccessfully to prevent more war on this too-long victimized people.

NYFOR shares the World House vision of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. [who was an FOR member] and we are committed to helping establish the Beloved Community -- people of all faiths living together in true peace and real justice: social, political, economic, racial, and environmental. We invite like-minded folk to join our list serv for informational purposes and to attend our upcoming meetings and events.

We are a local group of the national Fellowship of Reconciliation. The FOR is composed of women and men who recognize the essential unity of all creation and have joined together to explore the power of love and truth for resolving human conflict. We seek to replace violence, war, racism and economic injustice with nonviolence, peace and justice. We are an interfaith organization committed to active nonviolence as a transforming way of life and as a means of radical change. We educate, train, build coalitions, and engage in nonviolent and compassionate actions locally, nationally, and globally. For more information, see the national website, http://www.forusa.org/
