If you have never before attended a Friends’ (Quaker) Meeting for Worship, your first Meeting may surprise you.

We have no prearranged prayers, readings, sermons, or hymns. We wait in silent expectation for the Inner Light and Divine Presence to guide us.

We worship together on Sunday mornings without clergy or ritual. We meet in a plain, unadorned room. In such a place we listen for that still small voice of God within each of us.

There are no pulpits in our meeting rooms because we minister to each other. Our benches face each other because we are all equal before God.

Meeting for Worship is an hour of silence punctuated by vocal ministry. Each person present in a Meeting for Worship may speak out of the silence when led by God to do so. In the silence of the worship our spirit may join with God’s spirit.
