We worship every first day (Sunday) beginning at 10:00 AM. We sit in silence for 50 minutes, and then, in the last ten minutes, the children who had been in child care join us, and if anyone has a reflection or message that did not rise to be delivered during the first 50 minutes, we invite anyone to give a message at this time.
If you are not able to join us in person, but would still like to worship with us, we also provide a Zoom link. Contact the clerk for the link (goshenmm@gmail.com).
Child care is provided during Meeting for Worship. Everyone who provides child care has their PA State Clearances.
At 11:00 AM, we gather informally in the West Room (kitchen area) for light refreshments and socializing.
