Welcome Friends

All are welcome to join our meeting for worship each First Day (Sunday). Most gatherings are hybrid, both in-person and online, except for third First Days (Sundays), on those days online worship will not connect to the meetinghouse. Masks are optional at the meetinghouse. Please stay home if you are sick. Join our email list for Zoom meeting info.

If you are a visitor new to Quakerism please visit our About page to learn more about our faith and practice. This section also includes the details of our Quaker community life that we look forward to resuming when possible to do so safely.

Visit our Events page to see our schedule.


Need Space?

Our spaces are available for use by groups and organizations when use is not contrary to Quaker principles or our guidelines. Find out more.

Act with Love and Peace

Taking Action

We may be small, but we can be mighty when taking action, especially when we join with other individuals and organizations, Quaker and non-Quaker, for action involving our community, the region, our nation and the world. We encourage everyone saddened by the violence in Israel and Gaza to take action. On September 8 Tampa Meeting approved a minute and sample letter to send to representatives regarding military spending.


Right Sharing

Two baskets have been placed in the foyer of the back (worship) building for donations. One is for nonperishable food items and the other is for new and unused toiletries and clothing. The donations will be taken to a local food bank weekly. Thank you for sharing.
