Welcome to Our Worship
Our worship lasts about an hour. Instead of hymns, Bible readings, and a prepared sermon, we worship in silent expectation of the Spirit. During this sacred time, some folks may feel prompted by the Spirit to stand and speak.

What Do We Believe?
At the heart of our faith is the belief, based on our experience, that each of us can commune directly with God, however you define the Divine, and that the community also can know God's love, peace, joy, and guidance, directly as a community.
There's lots more, of course. Visit our About Us page to learn more about the Quaker way.
