Welcome to Bolton Quaker Meeting
Quakers are committed to a way of worship
which allows God to teach and transform us.
We have found corporately
that the Spirit, if rightly followed, will lead us into truth, unity
and love.
We worship in silence, interspersed with short spoken contributions
(ministry) from anyone present who feels moved to speak.
Quakers
believe in - and work for - peace, simplicity, justice and
equality. We
believe that all people have something of God within them.
We
meet at 10:30 every Sunday for an hour and also every Wednesday from 12.00pm for half an hour. We welcome anyone to
worship
with us. If you think you would like to share your spiritual journey
with us, for a short time, or for longer, please come to our meeting
for worship.
Bolton Meeting House is at 50 Silverwell Street - just off
Bradshawgate. There is a map
from this link showing its location.
If you want to know more about Quakers, there is more information here and from the
Links page. To contact

Although
our Meeting House is a
centre for worship, Quakers do not believe
buildings are special in themselves. We like to share it with the
community of Bolton during the week. We have 5 rooms available that we
hire to a wide variety of groups - voluntary, statutory and
commercial.
Take
heed, dear Friends, to the promptings of love and truth in your hearts.
Trust them as the leadings of God whose Light shows us our darkness and
brings us to new life.
