"As I listened to others tell about their spiritual journeys, I felt that I had finally come home. It seemed they were speaking my own thoughts."
- a Quaker Quest participant
"I have never felt so accepted and free to be myself with a group of people I barely know, and I never knew there was a religion that tolerated such a diversity of thought and belief. I can't wait to come back next week and hear what the other speakers have to say!"
- a Quaker Quest participant
Quaker Quest - Simple... Vibrant.. Contemporary.
Do you feel you are "Spiritual, but not Religious?"
Quaker Quest offers spiritual seekers just like you the opportunity to experience Quaker worship and learn about the Quaker way of life and faith.
You will hear stories from contemporary Quakers, learn who we are, talk to us and to other visitors, and experience the silent worship that is the wellspring of Quaker faith and practice.
You will be warmly welcomed. There are no collections or fees. We will walk with you on your spiritual journey wherever you are, and wherever your journey takes you.
Quaker Quest - A Spiritual Path for our Time
Philly Quaker Quest is hosted by the Quakers of Philadelphia Yearly Meeting.
