Bethesda Friends (Quakers) gather together for about an hour each Sunday morning. We call this Meeting for Worship. Please click here to see our schedule, child care, and classes for adults and children. | Visiting a new congregation for the first time can be daunting. You might have questions like: Can anyone visit a Quaker Meeting? What should I wear? What about my kids? Where do I park?” | Each Sunday the Pastoral Care “Friendly Ear” is introduced for visitors or members to ask questions. You can also take a copy of the Newcomer's Packet, BFM's weekly bulletin, our newsletter, and Quaker pamphlets. |
