In the manner of Early Friends\, we gather for a prolonged period of silent reflection and inward searching\, usually remaining in waiting worship for ~3 hours\, with time at the conclusion for afterthoughts and sharing. \nWe will gather in silence\, with hearts and minds open and bent towards listening to that of God among and within us. Spoken ministry may arise from the silence\, though it is not uncommon for worship to remain silent for the duration of our time together. Messages should be a deepening of the silence we share. The purpose of silent worship is not to speak\, but to listen more clearly. To this end\, we hold the silence as ministry itself\, which has the capacity for transformation and transcendence. \nExtended Worship is open to all those who wish to deepen their spiritual practice and relationship with Spirit. All those who wish for more inward reflection and connection to the divine within. Those seeking to expand their individual and communal spiritual lives. \nQuestions?

NO prior experience with Quakerism or religion is necessary.\n\nTime is slippery. It may take only a moment\, or the rest of our lives to discern God’s Will. Our Weekly meetings are Every Sunday at 11 am and they are one hour. This Special Saturday retreat is part of a time honored tradition going back to the early days of the Quaker Experiment in which friends met for long hours\, sometimes whole days of listening in body and spirit for a transformative encounter with the divine presence\, of the inward light and the eternity which has been set at hour hearts. Paradoxically\, We find that the extended duration (usually around three hours) allows any anxiety or feelings of scarcity to drift away into an oceanic sensation of deep time and embodiment that are only just starting to bloom in shorter durations. Our manner of worship is grounded in deep silence\, where we hope to gather “with hearts knit together in love” (Colossians 2:2). In this stillness\, we set aside the noise of our busy lives and our preconceived thoughts\, listening inwardly for spiritual insight and guidance. We believe\, that Inward communion is nearer to us than the air we breathe\, it fills the secret interiority of all creation and speaks to us at our innermost hearts. In worship we return to a reality that is always within and around us- an invisible and living stream into which we can step at any time.\n\nA Quaker meeting for worship\, is a dedicated space in which to Return Home within\, and to dwell in the light.
