Community
Quakerism is an experiential faith. We come together to learn how to put into daily practice our tenets of:
-
- simplicity & stewardship
- peacefulness
- integrity
- community
- equality
Each person’s path may be different but the shared journey deepens and enriches our lives. We welcome everyone to our fellowship.
We provide opportunities for both children and adults for religious education and spiritual growth including:
-
- Sunday classes and forums
- Bible Study
- in-depth exploration of spiritual paths
We also offer service activities, a meditative retreat center in Amelia County, shared meals, and opportunities for friendship and community building.
Social Action
Quakers have been on the leading edge of peacemaking and human rights issues for hundreds of years. Our roots in prison reform, anti-slavery, women’s suffrage, and peacemaking undergird today’s missions, among them:
-
- reforming criminal justice
- finding alternatives to violence
- caring for the earth
- working toward equity in our own neighborhood and around the world
We seek not only to understand the issues but also to take considered, concrete action to bring about change.
