Meeting for Worship with Attention to Music and Song
Please share the following exciting update and invitation from the South Jersey Quakers (SJQ) Project Team with your meeting community.
In their latest letter, “‘Living Song, Living Music, Living Faith’ — SJQ Next Steps & Spring 2026 Vision,” the team shares reflections on nurturing a living faith and announces concrete steps for growth, including formalizing as a non-profit.
Most joyfully, they cast a vision for a Spring 2026 Tri-Quarter gathering: a “Meeting for Worship for Music and Song.” This would be an expansive, intergenerational weekend of worship, fellowship, camping, shared meals, and creative joy, building on the beloved Fall Tri-Quarter spirit.
They need our help to make it real! They are seeking individuals and families willing to help host or participate, plus musicians, artists, food organizers, tech support, and energetic sponsors.
How to respond:
Individuals/Families: Reach out to SJQ directly if you feel called to participate.
Meetings: Please share this news during announcements and with your community as led.
Everyone: Consider if you have skills in outreach, planning, or creative arts to offer.
Let’s help them gather the critical mass of support needed to proceed. This is a wonderful opportunity to build vibrant, experimental community spaces across Burlington, Haddonfield, and Salem Quarters.
