New City Friends

New City Friends invite you to worship God in the Quaker tradition with us. We are a group of members of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) and seekers who have heard the call of Jesus Christ in our lives- to worship, to study, to share life together, and to work within our city for mercy and justice. We know from experience that the Holy Spirit is active in the world, changing lives and liberating the oppressed. We feel that God is calling us to respond and build a loving, Christ-centered Quaker community in the City of Detroit. All are welcome; we would love to have you come to our meetings for worship. Meetings for Worship are held every Thursday at 7pm at: Detroit Friends Meetinghouse, 6227 W Fort Street.
