About Religious Society Of Friends

Honolulu Friends Meeting is a Quaker congregation in Hawaii that has been serving the local community since its founding in 1937. The meeting worships in silence, unprogrammed, without choirs or sermons, seeking to listen for God's message through the Inner Light present in each person. Based on Quaker testimonies of simplicity, peace, integrity, community, and equality, the meeting welcomes all seekers and emphasizes continuing revelation available to everyone. The meetinghouse, built on a quarter-acre lot, serves not only as a place of worship but as a symbol of tolerance and peace within the broader community. Visitors are warmly invited to join weekly Sunday worship, and the meeting offers a First Day School program on the fourth Sunday of each month to help guide children in spiritual and moral development.
