    About Quakers

    Quakers seek to experience God within ourselves and in our relationships with others.

    We believe that the Divine spirit continues to reveal new truths to us.

    We are a community of meetings, members and seekers who support each other in faith, practice and witness.

    About Us

    We are one of the oldest yearly meetings of the Religious Society of Friends in the United States.

    Meetings, members, seekers and staff work together to nurture Quaker faith and practice in today’s world.

    Our Work

    Quakers are committed to living lives that outwardly attest to our inward spiritual experience.

    We express our faith in action and work for a better world through pioneering, inspiring programs and services.

    Everything we do is founded in our testimonies of peace, integrity, equality, simplicity and community.

    Though many individual Quakers join together in addressing social concerns, Quakerism is a faith of continuing revelation and PYM is a ‘big tent’ with many opinions.
