about our Meeting

We acknowledge that the land on which our Meetinghouses stand is the ancestral homeland of the Lenape People. We pay respect to the Lenape peoples who have been the stewards of this sacred land, and we honor their history and traditions.

who we are

  • We are a local community of Friends (Quakers). All are welcome
  • We host Sunday worship in two historic meetinghouses, Moorestown and Mt. Laurel
  • We worship in the manner of unprogrammed Friends, waiting in expectant silence for the guidance of the Divine.  Learn more here…
  • Children are always welcome to join in Meeting for Worship. Our Moorestown location also offers Sunday morning childcare for infants and toddlers, as well as religious education activities for Pre-K through middle school children.
