Who are we? The Quaker Leadership Center (QLC) was launched in 2022 by Earlham School of Religion (ESR) in Richmond, IN. Established in 1960 as a graduate theological division of Earlham College, ESR is the pre-eminent Quaker seminary in the United States. The Center is being funded with a grant from Lilly Endowment Inc. through its Pathways for Tomorrow Initiative, which is designed to help theological schools in the U.S. and Canada prioritize and respond to the most pressing challenges they face as they prepare pastoral leaders now and into the future. We are a ministry of ESR but seek to serve and connect a wide variety of Quaker leaders. What is our Mission? In a time of rapid cultural and congregational change, We equip Quaker leaders to faithfully adapt by: Cultivating new connections among diverse Quaker expressions Collaborating with existing partners to revitalize leaders and their ministry contexts Curating relevant resources from the wider world of faith and leadership Convening conversations about common concerns and new possibilities Creating spaces where leaders find their path to ministry and groups discern their vital futures Companioning leaders and like-minded Friends as they incubate new ministries Quaker Trustee Series: Investments When it comes to investing money, what are our options?
