-
be guided by Spirit, individually and collectively;
-
foster a caring, welcoming, and inclusive fellowship;
-
deepen our experience of Quaker worship, faith, and practice;
-
broaden our understanding of Quaker history and principles;
-
and strengthen our service and witness in the broader world.
Updated November 2021 - Join us for blended Meeting for Worship each Sunday at 10am. For those joining us at the meetinghouse, we ask that you wear a mask and sit socially distanced. Those unable to attend at the meetinghouse are welcome to join us online using our Zoom link.
Request link to join us virtually on Zoom. For any questions or technical help, contact Sue (call/text 704-497-6737).
Please read over our Blended (Hybrid) Meeting Guidelines.
NOTE: We are just past the Rocky River Village neighborhood, on the right. Look for our gravel driveway entrance on Rocky River Rd. Our entrance sign is leaning against a metal gate up a few yards off the main road, due to the road construction on Rocky River Rd. As of 11/21 - there's a road construction sign at our entrance that says "Uneven Pavement." If you get lost, call or text Sue at 704-497-6737. Be careful!

11/7 - How do I remain grounded in the face of adversity and challenge?
11/14 - Do we remind ourselves each day of our connections with people, other creatueres, and all that sustains life?
11/21 - Remember in all things to give thanks.
11/28 -
How do I rise to the occasion of addressing fear with curiosity, and how am I there to accompany others in their time of need?
As the leaves are turning, let's give thought to what's changing in our lives, and as the leaves are falling ,what are we letting go of.
Query: In what ways am I called to rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep, lifting up the universe in love?
Worship with us!
