What do you find most compelling about the WFC story? With Andy, Octavia, and a couple of special guests - explore the world which set the stage for World Fellowship in the early years and beyond.

What are our values? What are the actions that are most important to us to continue to carry forward? Join on Zoom here.  

The final conversation in this series - we invite you to dream with Octavia about the WFC we want to see in the next decade. What do we hope for the world and how does WFC play a role in the vision?
