We are holding in-person meeting for worship at 10:30 AM on Sunday mornings for fully vaccinated individuals with masks required while entering the meetinghouse and masks during meeting for worship voluntary. Childcare (which is now available on Sundays) and children programming will follow the protocols of the Philadelphia School District as to masks and vaccination.

Featured
You are invited to join us from 5:30 pm Eastern time (US & Canada) each Wednesday via Zoom. We greet each other, talk about concerns and joys until 6:00 pm when we sit quietly in unprogrammed worship for 30 minutes or longer if someone gives a message, says a prayer, sings a song. The message must come from the heart and be be brief, and be understood to fit in with the prayerfulness of the meeting; we have a chance to turn it into a discussion after the meeting is broken by the host saying "Good evening".
