Central Coast
Friends Meeting (Quakers)
There is that of God in each of us.
First-Time Visitors
Our unprogrammed meeting for worship is a wonderful time of prayer, worship and meditation for many, yet the silence and absence of structured activity during meeting can be challenging for some. Please arrive prepared to listen patiently for the Divine in the stillness of our gathering.
If you have never attended a Quaker meeting before, check out this video to know specifically what to expect. Other videos listed on the same page provide a wealth of basic information about Quaker beliefs and practices.
For a description of our worship, see our Worship page.
Children are very welcome at our meeting. We have a weekly First Day School with activities for young people at a range of ages. Ten minutes before the end of worship the young people join our main meeting and sit with us in silence.
After worship we introduce ourselves, have announcements and opportunities for fellowship.
