Contact: clerk@suttoncoldfieldquakers.org.uk (see link on Contact Us page) Quaker Meeting is very simple. When we meet on Sundays we sit together "listening" for "that of God within us". There is no pre-arranged service or ceremony and no minister in charge. When someone feels moved to, they stand and share out loud with the Meeting. Ministry may be a thought or a prayer, a question or even a song. Whatever they share will enrich the Meeting going forwards. At Sutton Coldfield, sometimes our Meetings for Worship can be completely silent; when there is spoken Ministry it usually relates to personal experience and social situations. |
![]() A Green and Just Recovery Quakers in Britain have set out their priorities in a submission to the government's Comprehensive Spending Review. Our submission reflects our belief that government spending should focus on creating a greener and fairer society. There is a growing movement for 'build back better'. We must not miss this moment. click here |
But in the Silence and in the Ministry, and most definitely together, we find ourselves rested, refreshed, strengthened, inspired... and ready to live as best we can for another week.

At the end of the hour we all shake hands and share a drink, a biscuit and a lot of chat with each other.
Children are welcome. Please advise us on the "Contact us" form when bringing children so we can plan appropriate activities. Our children usually join us in Meeting for the first 15 minutes or so. They then have their own supervised activities for the rest of the hour.
Other things that we do include regular meals together, study groups, prayer groups, and an ad hoc programme of walks, outings and other social events.
NOTE: On the FOURTH SUNDAY OF THE MONTH our Quaker Meeting for Worship is held at 3pm instead of 10:30am.
