Do not fill this in! ===Evangelical Friends=== A growing desire for a more fundamentalist approach among some Friends after the First World War began a split among [[Friends United Meeting|Five Years Meetings]]. In 1926, Oregon Yearly Meeting seceded from the [[Friends United Meeting|Five Years Meeting]], bringing together several other yearly meetings and scattered monthly meetings. In 1947, the [[Association of Evangelical Friends]] was formed, with triennial meetings until 1970. In 1965, this was replaced by the Evangelical Friends Alliance, which in 1989 became [[Evangelical Friends Church International]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.nwfriends.org/what-friends-believe/historical-statement/|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080131215748/http://www.nwfriends.org/what-friends-believe/historical-statement/|url-status=dead |title=Northwest Yearly Meeting Historical Statement |archivedate=31 January 2008}}</ref> Summary: Please note that all contributions to Christianpedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
