About Us :

Meetings for Worship are held on Sundays at 10.30am.

Quaker worship springs from the experience that each of us can have a direct relationship with the Divine. We meet in silence, with nothing pre-planned. Someone may feel inspired to stand up and speak briefly, pray, or read from the Bible or some other book, before the meeting returns to silent waiting. A Meeting for Worship usually lasts an hour. Through our communal worship we are empowered to find peace and strength for work in the world.

Children share in silent worship for 10-15 minutes before going to their own meeting.
