Services

  • Worship at First Friends
    Each Sunday we gather for worship, offering services that speak to different needs and interests:

    9:00 a.m. Silent (Unprogrammed) Meeting for Worship. Unprogrammed Meeting for Worship offers an opportunity for 45 minutes of worship in the manner of early Friends.

    10:00 a.m. Sunday School
    Children's classes are offered, grouped by age from preschool through high school. In addition to spiritual development, the children's program is teaching the children to make positive choices in life. This is done through the use of stimulating materials, discussion and planned social activities.
    Adult classes explore a range of scriptural, spiritual and contemporary issues.

    11:00 a.m. Programmed Meeting for Worship. Programmed Meeting for Worship offers an opportunity for worship incorporating silence, sharing, singing, music from the choir, prayer, and a message from the pastor, a Meeting member, or guest speaker.

    Monthly Meeting for Business and Worship
    The first Wednesday of each month, at 7 PM, we gather as a community to discern how we will conduct the business of the Meeting.
