On the eve of a major U.S. presidential election, we’re exploring what it means to be a politically engaged Friend. We’ll hear from Diane Randall and Emily Provance, who will offer hope and guidance on how to engage faithfully. They’ll address voting, political violence, and engaging with people who have different opinions.

And if a Quaker government sounds good right about now, then you definitely need to hear our segment on the rise and fall of a Quaker-run colony!

Philadelphia’s Arch Street Meeting House (ASMH) has been the site of many important events in Quaker history, and we’re celebrating its 220th Anniversary on Sunday, Oct. 27th. All are invited to worship with the Monthly Meeting of Friends of Philadelphia and later enjoy family-friendly Fall activities like pumpkin carving, historic interpreters, and sweet treats. Whether you’re a local or from out of town, ASMH invites all to explore the museum and join our community of 52,000 annual visitors. We also welcome volunteers! Check our website for the latest hours and sign up for our newsletter at HistoricASMH.org.
