Welcome to Exeter Quakers

Why not try us for a few months?


Quakers work to strengthen their spiritual practice within a community of silent worship, sometimes punctuated by ministry from any member of the community. This practice leads us to lovingly pursue the familiar Quaker goals of simplicity, truth, equality, peace and sustainability.

We welcome all children and families. We have a programmed Children's Meeting on the last Sunday of each month. On other Sundays, activities are available for children accompanied by a parent.

Please note that only assistance dogs are permitted in the building and grounds.
