West Philadelphia Friends Meeting

West Philadelphia Friends Meeting is a Quaker meeting in the Cedar Park neighborhood of West Philadelphia. The group began as the West Philly Worship Group in 2008, and decided to become West Philadelphia Friends Meeting in September, 2013. We are a preparative meeting under the care of Green Street Monthly Meeting, as of January 2015.

Meeting Times

Worship is 10:30AM on Sundays

What's New

Friends are invited to meet for our annual Easter Sunrise worship at Bartram's Gardens. Sunrise is at 6:51am, and so Friends are invited to gather at 6:30am (or earlier) on the hillside overlooking the Schuylkill River (to the left of the Bartram's Garden buildings.) 

We'll have worship as usual at 1:30pm in the Squirrel Hill building, followed by a special multigenerational Spiritual Fellowship activity - an Easter Egg Hunt!

As is our West Philly Friends Meeting tradition, we'll be celebrating Advent as a community.  Friends are invited to our lovely little series of gatherings for this advent season - times for reflection, delight and togetherness. Programs may include readings, sharing, worship, singing and creative projects.  Email Pamela Draper if you would like to contribute decorations, greenery, sweets or live music! Here are the dates:

Three West Philly Friends gathered together as the sun rose on the Philadelphia skyline across the Schuylkill River.  Silent worship was held while seated on a white tablecloth in an open meadow.  Hymn singing included "Nearer My God To Thee", "Men whose boast it is, that ye", among others from A Hymnal for Friends.
