Sandy Spring Friends Meeting is a warm and welcoming Quaker community in Maryland where all are invited to worship and belong. Friends gather in silence, in a beautiful historic meeting house where the community has worshiped together since 1817. The meeting is alive with connection and care—young families, a thriving First Day School program, shared meals, and joyful traditions like the annual Halloween festival that opens the doors to the wider community. Sandy Spring is a place where people are accepted as they are, children are nurtured, and community is built through care, reflection, and joy.

Day 25 of 25 Days of Kindness! Today is Christmas, and the final kindness is simple: give a gift (whether wrapped or simply shared) and offer a sincere wish of goodwill. As we conclude our Advent calendar, let us carry this spirit of cooperation and peace forward into the new year. Merry Christmas to all, and thank you for joining our community in letting our lives speak through kindness.

Day 24 of 25 Days of Kindness! Ellen shares her daily practice of loving kindness: starting the day with a prayer to fill her heart with love, and then offering a smile and a brief greeting to everyone she meets. It's a powerful way to love all our neighbors.

Day 22 of 25 Days of Kindness! Carol suggests a kindness that helps busy or overwhelmed neighbors: sharing homemade food. If you're making soup, chili, or mac and cheese, make a double batch and share it with someone who could use a meal this holiday season. A small offering of food is a big kindness!
