Quakers
The humble, meek, merciful, just, pious, and devout souls are everywhere of one religion, and when death takes off the mask, they will know one another though the diverse liveries they wear here make them strangers.
William Penn
Quakers is a shorthand term for the Religious Society of Friends, which was founded in England as a radical Christian movement in the 17th century. Today, Quakers come from all walks of life and continue to uphold a progressive religious outlook.
We hold Meetings for Worship, when we come together in silence and try to open ourselves to the deeper levels of our experience. We have no paid clergy to lead or interpret our spiritual life and it is open to anyone who feels moved by the spirit to make a spoken contribution.
Where we meet together
Meetings for Worship are held on most Sundays at Slow Spot, a low-waste shop – https://www.facebook.com/slowspot – located between Vítězné náměstí and Podbaba railway station, which are both in walking distance. It can also be reached by trams Nos. 8 and18, and bus 131 from Hradčanská or Bořeslavka (stop: Zelená). Buses 147, 107, 116, 160, 355, 340 and 350 also run from Dejvická bus station to the Čínská stop. Attendance is possible via zoom: Ask the contact person for the link.
