Miami Friends Meeting 1185 Sunset Drive Coral Gables, FL 33143
When you visit our Quaker
Meeting, you will find a simple setting with chairs facing the center of the
room. You may sit anywhere you wish.
Our Meeting for Worship is a time of
quiet that lasts about an hour in which the daily clamor of life is stilled
and we can hear God's voice. The Meeting finishes with a shaking of hands,
followed by notices covering our varied activities. Children are welcome;
there is a separate class for them and there is toddler care during worship.
Please ask for details.
 Quaker
belief is rooted in the Judeo-Christian religious tradition. Miami Friends
also believe that God is not limited to that revealed in ancient or recent
scriptures. The Spirit of God continues to be revealed in multiple forms and
through diverse channels. God is vital and in everyone and is accessible
directly. Ongoing reinterpretations of the truth are necessary to remain open
to that not yet revealed.
Regardless of race, gender, religion, sexual
orientation or nationality, every person is a potential messenger and servant
of God. We are called to minister to one another, sharing pastoral
responsibilities.
Miami Friends meet in silence in unprogrammed group
worship. Occasional spoken messages, inspired by the spirit, arise from the
silence. We seek to be instruments of God's love, expressing testimonies of
peace, social justice, and non-exploitive simple living as we work toward
fulfilling visions of harmony with nature, maximum good for all and unceasing
spiritual development.
Everyone is welcome to attend our Meetings for
Worship held each Sunday at 10:30 A.M. (with First Day School for children at
the same time) and our Meeting for Learning (for Adults) at 9:30 A.M.
