About Quaker Olympia Friends Meeting
Olympia Monthly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) is an active, welcoming, and inclusive spiritual community in Olympia, Washington. The heart of their practice is Meeting for Worship, held every Sunday morning at 10 a.m., where participants gather in silence to open their hearts to the Spirit, with space for individuals to share brief spoken ministry if moved to do so. This liberal, unprogrammed branch of Quakerism welcomes people from diverse religious backgrounds and beliefs, emphasizing their testimonies of simplicity, peace, integrity, community, equality, and stewardship. The meeting is family-friendly with a children's program, and visitors will encounter a community that values the sanctity of all human beings, respects equality, and seeks nonviolent solutions to conflict. Located at 3201 Boston Harbor Road NE, the meetinghouse sits on traditional Steh-Chass and Squaxin Island Tribe territory, and the community actively nurtures relationships with their Coast Salish neighbors.
