Quakers Embrace Everyone

In the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers), people from a variety of backgrounds and beliefs embark together on a spiritual journey. Although their individual beliefs may vary, Quakers share a Testimony of Equality based on the idea of a Divine presence in all people. A testimony is not a belief; it is committed action arising out of spiritual experience that describes the way that Friends testify or bear witness to their beliefs in their daily life.

“Deep within us all there is an amazing inner sanctuary of the soul, a holy place, a Divine Center, a speaking voice, to which we may continuously return.”  

~Thomas Kelly

The Calgary Religious Society of Friends acknowledges that our gatherings take place on Treaty 7 in Southern Alberta in Moh’kins’tsis, named by the Blackfoot, where the Bow River meets the Elbow. Southern Alberta is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta (Districts 5 and 6).

Calgary Monthly Meeting is part of Canadian Yearly Meeting and the Affirming Network of Faith Communities.
