Today's Meeting in Tottenham
Quakers continue to worship in Tottenham on the site where a Meeting House has stood since for nearly 300 years. We are a small gathering, but growing. Each Sunday Friends come together for Meeting for Worship, fellowship and tea. Children and young people are always welcomed at Tottenham Meeting. On the first Sunday of each month they have their own meeting for worship in their own room, while the adults worship in the room next door. Through stories, crafts, discussion and worshipful silence, they explore a variety of issues relating to Quaker life. These have included topics on friendship, families and special friends, feeling different, peace, being homeless. The meeting continues to grow, and plans are now being made to build a new, larger meeting house with space for community groups to meet and perhaps a play group or nursery to be accommodated. |
