Planning your Visit

 

New to Meeting for Worship? 


If you've never attended a Meeting for Worship, we hope you will come worship with us.   

Many have found help in viewing the "introductory" videos to answer questions that might arise in expectation of a Quaker Meeting for Worship.   

Most Quaker meetings, at least in this part of country, are so-called "unprogrammed" meetings. This means that our meetings for worship are not led by a minister but are largely conducted in silence.  Typically, a Clerk or other Member of the Meeting will close worship with a simple "Good morning, friends" but otherwise the meeting may be completely silent. 

Members and attenders are always invited to speak out of the silence with a message about their spiritual journey, although messages are not responded to directly.

A message has been described as a pebble tossed into a pond.  The resulting ripples are received by others in the meeting and may contribute to their own spiritual journeys.
