A
Quaker Meeting is silent worship in the presence of
the Spirit of God.
There is no pre-arranged service or appointed minister.
The Meeting for Worship is a shared experience, in which worshippers
listen for
the promptings of God. It may be entirely without words, but
usually
there are spoken contributions. Anyone may feel the call to
speak: man,
woman, or child, experienced Quaker or first time visitor.
These contributions are spontaneous, and may be a reflection on
personal
experience and insight, perhaps including a reading from Quaker
writings, the
Bible, or other literature.
The Meeting closes with the shaking of hands.
Everyone is welcome to join us at our Meeting for Worship.
There are special arrangements for children during Meeting for Worship
on
Sundays. For more information,
