Newcomers to Quakerism Meeting

Name: NYC Quakers
Price range: $

Join with Friends, both new and seasoned, to discuss the fundamentals of Quaker practice, including silent worship and worship sharing.

Back to Events

Every First Sunday of the month, newcomers to Quakerism and experienced members and attenders gather before Meeting at 10:30 in the Library in the Social Hour Room to share a discussion addressing the fundamentals of Quaker worship, including silent worship and worship sharing. In particular, we discuss how to discern whether and when the call to rise and speak reaches the threshold to contribute ministry during Meeting for Worship.
