We choose to worship in silence as we sit in “expectant waiting” reaching out from the depths of our being to the Divine giver of life and of the world around us. Modern Friends refer to the “Inner Light” which is “that of God” within each person and all created things. Each of us experiences worship differently. There is no “right” way to prepare for worship and no set practice to follow when we
sit in silence. Worship usually begins by stilling the mind and body, letting go of the tensions of everyday life. Some individuals may want to prepare for Meeting by reading a Bible verse or other devotional literature, some may meditate or pray silently, some focus on gratitude, each Friend prepares in their own way and has their own individual experience in Meeting. If you would like to worship with a group that believes in loving each other, respecting differences, accepting others as they are, simplicity, integrity, peacefulness, community service, equality and addressing environmental issues then come visit with us.
