The ‘silent’ meetings started by George Fox and his followers are still the center of Quaker life. You are welcome here for a quiet hour in communion before God, during which anyone may ‘speak out of the silence’ if moved by the Spirit. [See also here.] On some occasions, there may be no one who speaks. On other occasions, there may be one or several messages. If you enter after a meeting for worship has begun, you are welcome to quietly take a seat. (You may wish to view a lovely, little ‘book’ at http://ComingToAQuakerMeeting.uk)
We are a ‘hybrid’ Meeting (we worship in person and have a Zoom link for those who wish to join us online). If you wish to join us via Zoom, email Zoom [at] ConcordFriendsMeeting [dot] org and someone will call you to answer questions and provide an introduction.
We meet for worship every Sunday morning in our meetinghouse at 11 Oxbow Pond Road in Canterbury, NH. Please come and visit.
Our schedule on a typical Sunday follows. On second Sundays of the month, the end of our regular worship service is followed by a potluck lunch and then a Meeting for Worship with attention to Business. Other programs may follow worship, particularly on fourth Sundays of the month.
10·00 - 10·15 : Worship through song
10·15 - 11·15 : Worship (unprogrammed) and young people’s ‘First-Day School’
