Welcome! Millville Friends Meeting gathers for worship each Sunday at 10am–please join us! All you need is a waiting heart, an hour to sit with a gathered community, and an appreciation of the spirit of God moving in the midst of a faithful people. All are welcome. Most weeks a “first day school” discussion follows worship. Children attend the first half of meeting with the adults and then adjourn to their own first day school program.

Quakers are members of the Religious Society of Friends. Quakers, or Friends, believe that all people have the same access to God and that God’s Inner Light shines through each of us. Quakerism is rooted in Christianity; however, today’s Quakers are united in a close religious community of faith which springs from many different traditions and beliefs. Quaker Meeting for Worship is simple. Friends gather at their meetinghouses in silence and await God’s word and guidance. One or more worshippers may break the silence to share an inspired message of hope or joy or thankfulness—or a pressing problem or concern. Friends listen carefully and are mindful and accepting of the messages, with an openness to the Spirit from whence they sprang. |
