Membership

How do you become a member?  New attenders are encouraged to come to Meeting for Worship for at least one year, participate in committee work, and Monthly Meeting for Worship for Business enough times to have a basic understanding of the Quaker decision-making process. Attending a Quaker retreat or residential gathering is also highly recommended.

The interested person submits a letter requesting membership when they are ready and a clearness committee is appointed to help them to explore their reasons for joining. After a positive recommendation from the committee, the new member is joyfully welcomed and membership is minuted at the next Meeting for Business.

If you are interested in transferring your membership from another Quaker meeting, please reach out to the Clerk to begin the process.
