The Quaker Cloud has been our hosting site but now at last we are going out on our own. Better look, more functionality and quicker updates await.
Welcome to Trenton Meeting of Friends of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers)!
We meet for Worship each First Day (Sunday) at 10am.
Although we continue to use Zoom to allow that option for those who need or choose it, the Meetinghouse is open for our worship and other activities. The Zoom link for our First Day (Sunday) Worship is emailed to our mailing list and to those not on our mailing list who have requested it. You can make that request by emailing trentonquakers@gmail.com.
We worship together for about an hour in what is mostly silence. Although not much is being said, there is much going on as we center together in prayer. Sometimes out of that silence, people rise to speak, sharing messages that come from the holy part of them. We find the honesty and truth revealed in this way to be helpful and inspiring, sometimes leading to callings and actions. Trenton's Quakers are active, making contributions to our community and our world.
Among the historical testimonies that express central values of Quakers are the presence of God in each person, a direct and individual communion with God, and between all human beings a working towards peace, equality, simplicity, integrity, care of the environment and care for each other. In these times, many people feel these leadings!
