Purchase Quaker Friends Meeting offers a peaceful, inclusive spiritual home rooted in the Quaker tradition of unprogrammed worship.
We gather each Sunday in silent worship, listening together for the guidance of the Spirit in community.
Our Meetinghouse — located in Purchase, NY — has been home to Friends (Quakers) in New York since 1727.
We continue this nearly 300-year-old tradition with simplicity, reverence, and open hearts.
In unprogrammed Quaker worship, there is no pastor or prepared sermon. Instead, we settle into silent reflection,
creating space for deep listening. Anyone present may rise to speak if they feel genuinely led.
This kind of Quaker worship is centered on direct spiritual experience, shared equally among all who attend.
Meeting for Worship typically lasts about one hour, followed by community announcements and friendly fellowship.
All are welcome — whether you’re curious about Quaker beliefs, exploring peaceful spiritual communities,
or looking for a Quaker church in Westchester County.
Come as you are. Experience the quiet power of Quaker faith and practice.
