WORSHIP CENTERED DISCUSSION (Parlor / Zoom)

Forums are informal devotional discussions, usually with a leader and about a particular topic. They are hybrid events: you can participate either in person or Zoom. Except as noted forums are held in the Parlor. Forums are designed to help those who attend prepare for meeting for worship. All are welcome; forums provide good opportunities for new members, attenders, and visitors to learn more about our Meeting and what issues are of concern to the Meeting, and to get to know other individuals in the Meeting.

Participants will have the option to meet in the Parlor (with masks) or on Zoom. Forum presenters may choose to be maskless while they are speaking but attendees are requested to wear masks even when speaking.
