Welcome to Winchmore Hill Quaker Meeting and our website
We have met in this beautiful meeting place for more than 300 years. Yet what we have to say is very up to date. We seek to be a friendly and open spiritual community, which welcomes everyone. You are very welcome to join us for worship every Sunday at 10.30 am, or for the other events we run here. Our gardens are open to all to use as a place of beauty and reflection.

(Went very well! read report) Friday 2 October: Being and Doing, Faith in Action (Modesty forbids, read a report) Friday 9th October: Quaker worship (guess what, also went well. yes read another report here) We may be running this again. Call us. Look at the QuakerQuest entries in the blog News and Views (hint, click on the tag to find the others.) Look at www.quakerquest.org. Come to our Sunday morning meeting and ask. "For me the focused, expectant silence of the meeting was like nothing I'd ever experienced. Birdsong or traffic noises would mingle with the occasional cough, or creak of a seat, within the room. And after perhaps 10 minutes there would be a sense of the silence deepening - like a coastal shelf falling away beneath our feet. A profound, inner stillness would descend as fidgeting diminished and superficial sounds receded into the background." Singer Tom Robinson writing about Quaker worship recently. |
