Welcome to Uxbridge Quaker Meeting House |

Announcements
The seed from which Uxbridge Quakerism grew was planted by George Fox of England in the mid 1600's. He spent several years in search of spiritual help and challenged many religious forms and beliefs. Others who favoured some degree of religious liberty met informally with him to pray at appointed times and places. Instead of holding traditional services, they waited together in silence, to receive from within Divine directions which prompted them to speak. The Meeting House will be open to the public the first Sunday of each month from June to September from 1pm to 4pm. The 2019 dates are: June 2, July 7, August 4, September 1. The Meeting House will all also be open August 25 from 1 to 4pm to coincide with the Uxbridge Heritage Day weekend.
