About First Friends Meeting
First Friends Meeting is a welcoming Quaker community in Greensboro, North Carolina, rooted in the Quaker traditions of peace, equality, simplicity, integrity, and stewardship. The meeting describes itself as a place where friends become family and family become friends, offering both unprogrammed silent worship and semi-programmed worship services on Sunday mornings. The congregation is explicitly welcoming and affirming of all persons regardless of race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, or other human distinctions. Beyond worship, First Friends engages in active community service through various ministry teams, small group offerings including Bible study and book clubs, and partnerships with local organizations. Visitors will find a community committed to listening for the Spirit's leading in both corporate worship and decision-making, while embracing theological diversity within the Quaker tradition.
