WHAT'S HAPPENING
In the life
of our Meeting, there are rich opportunities to engage within
the community and in
the wider Quaker world.
Here are a few examples …
AT
THE MEETINGHOUSE
- All are welcome to the monthly Parents
Support group, for pizza and potluck, discussion and
sharing, childcare
and playing! Meets monthly on first Friday evenings at
6:30 PM.
- Other groups within our Meeting gather
regularly, from the healing prayer circle to the ‘witness support’ group
that supports Quaker action among us.
- We also host regular and occasional guests whose activities
and events serve the broader community, including AA
Meetings, yoga and meditation groups, a family food co-op,
and a range of presentations and celebrations.
