WORSHIP CENTERED DISCUSSION (Parlor / Zoom)

Forums occur every Sunday September through June at 9:15am except on 5th Sundays when we sing together instead. They are informal devotional discussions, usually with a leader and about a particular topic. Forums are designed to help those who attend prepare for meeting for worship. All are welcome. Forums provide opportunities for new members, attenders, and visitors to learn more about our Meeting, what issues are of concern to the Meeting, and to get to know other individuals in the Meeting.

Childcare is provided during Forum except on 1st Sundays, when we will try to provide childcare only if it is requested in advance by emailing childcarerequest@fmcquaker.org.

Please contact the Forum Organizers, George Campbell and Jan Nisenbaum, at forum@fmcquaker.org with forum ideas.

You can participate either in person or Zoom. Forum presenters may choose to be maskless while they are speaking but attendees are requested to wear masks even when speaking. Forums are held in the Parlor except as noted.
