Staten Island Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers)
VISITORS WELCOME!
Meeting for Worship 1st and 3rd Sundays monthly, starting at 10:10 am
During the winter we meet at Every Thing Goes Book Cafe (“ETG“). In warmer months (ie, May through October), we alternate between ETG and the beach — generally at the beach on 1st Sundays and @ ETG on 3rd Sundays. There are occasional changes to that schedule, so we encourage making contact before your first visit so we can be sure to share the most up-to-date information with you.
For more info, click “CONTACT.”
When you come:
You will know Meeting for Worship is in session if no one verbally greets you when you enter. That does not mean you are not welcome. You are welcome!
Meeting for Worship is not necessarily completely silent. Participants may be moved by the spirit to respectfully share vocal ministry. That includes you, even when it’s your first meeting; but please note that vocal ministry is not a sermon nor a debate, nor is it idle chatter. It’s only the concise expression of “that of God within.” It is customary for an individual to speak no more than once during a single Meeting for Worship.
