Schedule time at the Quaker Meeting House
In October 2024, after many months of thoughtful discussion and collaboration, SSJ were delighted to sign a five-year lease granting us use of the Quakers meeting house throughout the working week.
We’re grateful for the trust placed in us to take on the management and maintenance of this important building. It’s a privilege to share in the care of the meeting house, and we see this partnership as a meaningful way to make the best use of community resources.
