All Are Welcome!

Swarthmore Friends Meeting is a diverse, egalitarian, and welcoming religious community centered around worship, fellowship, and action on social concerns. As Quakers, we believe that each person experiences God directly, without outside assistance, and we seek this direct communion with God in our worship which has a foundation in silence. Our social witnesses spring from our calling to nurture that of God in every person.

Our meetinghouse is located at 12 Whittier Place on the Swarthmore College campus. We invite all to join us in worship and other activities, and to explore whether Swarthmore Meeting would be a good spiritual home for you. Quakers talk about their faith in short videos.

Meeting for worship: Every Sunday at 10 a.m., followed by fellowship at 11:15. Hybrid worship on second Sundays. Online worship Wednesdays at 10 am. Contact the Meeting office for the zoom link information below

First Day School for children ages 5-upper elementary, every Sunday at 10 am.
Child care for younger children every Sunday from 10 a.m. to noon.

Our meetinghouse has two wings. The area where we worship is wheelchair accessible, including an ADA bathroom. Enter through the main door on Whittier Place for worship. We meet for socializing and events in the other wing. There is an outside ramp leading to that area, and a small bathroom is on the same floor. If you would like to come in via the ramp, let the Meeting secretary know so the door will be unlocked for you. Phone number and email at bottom of page.
