Haverford Friends Meeting

About this church

Haverford Friends Meeting is a Quaker spiritual community welcoming people from many religious traditions and people with no religious affiliation who seek to deepen goodness in the world. Its central practice is unprogrammed Meeting for Worship, where participants gather in expectant silence and may speak when moved. Children and youth programs, senior services, community resources, and learning about Quaker belief and history support participation across ages.

Meeting for Worship is held Sunday from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. in person and on Zoom. Greeters are available after 10:15 to welcome first-time attenders, provide name tags, and explain the room. Dress is informal, and people may sit anywhere. Ample parking, accessible spaces, a Buck Lane ramp, and a wheelchair in the foyer support mobility needs. Seating can also be arranged for a clear view of simultaneous transcription when spoken messages arise. Because unprogrammed worship differs from a sermon-led service, newcomers may find the What to Expect and visitor videos useful before attending. Families should review the infants, children, and youth page for the current class schedule rather than assuming every group meets throughout the year.
