Zoom Information:
Zoom may be available at the meetinghouse if there is someone able to start the machines. If not, there will be two separate meetings – one on zoom and one in person at the meetinghouse.

We use the Owl Pro and internet at the meeting house to help make the process better for both those in person and those who are virtual. We strive to have zoom running by 10am but sometimes delays occur.

Everyone will be muted at 10:25 to prepare for the start of Meeting for Worship. You will need to unmute yourself to speak. For those that dial in on a phone, *6 is used to unmute and mute.

This zoom info is only for our Meeting for Worship every Sunday and will not change for the foreseeable future. Each different committee meeting has a different zoom meeting ID, some of which are recurring.

Queries
2024-08-25 12:00 - 13:30
Quaker queries are questions or a series of questions that Quakers use for reflection, spiritual exercises, and self-examination. They can be used to explore what’s already present in people’s lives, consider how their actions are shaped by truth and love, and live more fully in alignment with the spirit.

Summer Concert

Join us for an afternoon of crafts, ice cream, and music, featuring The Peaceabilities and Evan Carawan.
The Peaceabilities
‘The Peaceabilities’ (formerly, ‘The Emancipators’), winner of the 2016 Peacemaker Award by the Oak Ridge Environmental Peace Alliance, has been making music for community-building, peace, and justice since 2008. Same players and music for fun and better-world making, just a different moniker.
‘The Peaceabilities’ play acoustic music, both traditional and contemporary, with vocal harmonies and plenty of opportunities for listeners to sing along. We seek to play music that is fun, and also that tells personal stories, builds community, and promotes peace and positive social change. The band has benefited from a number of fine musicians who have moved to other projects over the years and mourns the loss of our flutist and perennial source of good cheer, Durant Thompson, Jr. Current members are Guy Larry Osborne, Kevin Collins, Ralph Hutchison, and Mitzi Wood-von Mizener.
