Dover-Randolph Friends

We like to think of ourselves as ‘The little Meeting that could’. 

On any given First Day (Sunday), you will find between four and twenty people at meeting, consisting of visitors, attendee’s and members.  We are small and powerful, with very active committees such as Peace and Social Action and Ministry and Counsel.

Upcoming Events:

We continued to have Meeting for Worship in the Meeting House during most of the COVID-19 pandemic, since we are small enough and the Meetinghouse is large enough that we are able to maintain social distancing. Masks are now optional. During good weather we will meet outside.

We wish that all F/friends stay safe and well. Let us all hold each other in the Light.
