We are located at 4413 5th Avenue South, Birmingham, AL 35222, two blocks east of Avondale Park. We meet in a white two story house that is the last house on the right before 5th Avenue runs into Crestwood Blvd. Parking is in the back of the house or on 6th Avenue behind the meeting house.

What's New
Until further notice we are now Meeting via Zoom at 10am on Sunday Morning. If you would like to join us send an email to Birmingham@sayma.org.
You can also join on any Sunday after 9:30am by viewing the calendar on this site then on the day you wish to join click on the BFM-Virtual-Meeting event on that calendar.
Our testimonies are about the way that we, as Friends, try to lead our lives. Putting faith into practice often comes with great difficulty, arising from an understanding of certain value and principles which are central to each Quaker.
Local Meetings are called Monthly Meetings because they meet for business once a month. There are local Meetings that are under the care of Monthly Meetings and these are generally referred to as Worship Groups.
