What's New

News From The Meetinghouse is our new Quarterly newsletter.
The newsletter is attached.

Once again, it is time for us to compile our report for the NYYM State of Society Committee, so that they can write the annual report. This is a regular practice that asks monthly meetings to reflect on the past year and note achivements, concerns, and general health of the meeting within the context of all that is happening in the world. Meetings are guided by queries and prompts on how to write the report.


Hudson Friends have adopted a 2 mile section of NYS Route 9G, extending from the Stewart's Shops Gas and Convenience near the Rip Van Winkle Bridge to town.
We have completed 3 years of service, removing many bags of trash from the side of the road. We will resume trash pick-up in the spring.
We appreciate the volunteers for their service and care of our planet and community, and to Donna for coordinating the clean-up efforts!
Meetings for worship are held weekly 10:30-11:40 AM on Sundays.
The meetinghose will be open for in-person worship on:
May 2, 10:30-11:40 AM
May 16, 10:30-11:40 AM
May 30, 10:30-11:40 AM
PLEASE NOTE: When weather permits, worship will be held in our back garden. We will maintain social distancing in all spaces. Masks are still required indoors of all people regardless of vaccine status.
We will continue to hold meeing over Zoom as well, for those who prefer the comfort and/or safety of their own home.
Have you ever wondered about the Quaker practice of posing queries? That was the topic of our March Quaker Conversation. Together we explored the history of queries as well as the purpose of them. We learned that according to Howard Brinton in Friends for 350 Years (1952), the first recorded query was, "Are love and unity maintained amongst you?" For those new to Friends queries, the Quakerspeak video linked here provides a short explanation of how they are used.
Worship with us!
