"All are Welcome!" It is well known that Quakers are welcoming. It is also well known that Quakers live their testimonies. In particular, Quakers support peace and social justice and take action as we feel is appropriate.
Currently many religious organizations are supporting immigration rights. Philadelphia Yearly Meeting is a plaintiff in a lawsuit against the US Department of Homeland Security.
Stay up to date about it here: https://www.pym.org/dhs-lawsuit/
Did you know all people in the United States, regardless of immigration status, have certain rights and protections under the U.S. Constitution? The Immigrant Legal Resource Center (ILRC) provides red cards that give examples of how people can exercise these rights. However, they do not provide individualized legal advice. Community members are encouraged to check in with a trusted legal service provider for questions about their situation.
ILRC red cards are available to self print in multiple languages. If you would like professionally printed red cards, visit Barnegat Friends Meeting any time for free copies with our compliments.

Yes, we still enjoy eating and chatting at the open houses that we host the fourth Sunday of each month. We started a new series of discussions for your delectation. :)
Our theme for 2025 is Quaker Dis-Orientation. There are four videos. We are showing and discussing one in February, April, June, and August.
Quaker Disorientation: Learning and Unlearning Quaker Faith & Practice is a brief four-part video series for newcomers to Quaker faith. It is intended to provide some information about core practices and insights about the faith, a pathway for entering into Quaker faith and practice. In these four 20-minute videos there is an overview, but this is by no means intended to be comprehensive.
