Evangelical Friends Church International (EFCI) is a branch of the Society of Friends (Quaker) yearly meetings (regional associations) located around the world. This branch makes up many Evangelical Quaker meetings from the Gurneyites. They are more conservative in their orientation than other Quaker meetings and have many similarities to other denominations of Evangelicalism. The original EFCI, known as the Association of Evangelical Friends, was formed in 1947. The EFCI adopted its current name in 2004 and are a member of the National Association of Evangelicals.

After the switching of around 7,000 Friends from the Friends United Meeting in California to the EFCI, Evangelical Friends became the largest branch of Friends in the United States.^[1][2]
