THE RELIGIOUS SOCIETY OF FRIENDS (QUAKERS)

The Las Cruces Monthly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) is a member of the Inter Mountain Yearly Meeting (IMYM). We are especially active in issues of peace and social concerns, as Quakers have been historically. We follow the silent meeting form of service in which members and attenders meet in silence until someone feels moved to speak. We meet monthly for business (hence the name "monthly meeting") and weekly on First Day (Sunday) for silent worship. We have no minister, the meetings for business and worship being convened by the Clerk, who serves for no longer than two years. The meeting is open to anyone who wishes to attend regardless of sex, age, sexual orientation, race or marital status. MEETING FOR WORSHIP (child care provided) Sundays at 10:00 a.m. at Quaker House, 622 North Mesquite, Las Cruces, NM 88001. Everyone welcome. Informal dress. For further information, contact Al Galves at (575) 522-8371, or Quaker House at (575) 647-1929. Mailing address: Las Cruces Friends, P. O. Box 1240, Mesilla Park, NM 88047.
