Welcome

Quakerism began in England over 350 years ago, but it didn’t end there. There are Quakers here in South Australia at the beginning of the 21st century.

Although Christian in origin, the Quaker approach is experiential, has no priests and is free of doctrines and rituals. What we have is a belief that each person has something of the divine within them. This leads to a sense of reverence for all humankind and for the planet we inhabit.

Quakers seek to express in their lives principles of simplicity, equality, compassion and peace, based on a conviction of the presence of the Spirit in every person.

We are probably best known for our silent, meditative worship and our work for peace and social justice. Our worship isn’t always silent and this site will allow you to find out more about that and other things to do with Quakers here and elsewhere and to make contact with us if you wish.

8. Worship is our response to an awareness of God. We
can worship alone, but when we join with others in
expectant waiting we may discover a deeper sense of
God's presence. we seek a gathered stillness in our
meetings for worship so that all may feel the power
of God's love drawing us together and leading us.
