HAPPENINGS BEYOND THE MEETING
While the Burlington Monthly Meeting was laid down in 1991 (and a new Conference Center was opened in 1995), a Worship Group has recently been formed under the care of Trenton Monthly Meeting and Friends are now worshipping in the Burlington Meetinghouse again every Sunday at 10 am. If you have friends or relatives who live in the vicinity of Burlington who might be interested in worshipping with us and learning more about Quakerism, please encourage them to join us. Many Quakers and visitors from throughout the area have been moved by this unique historical Quaker worship experience. The Meetinghouse (built in 1783 and recently restored) is located in the heart of the Burlington Historical District at 340 High Street, a half block from the RiverLine light rail train stop and just a short walk from the Delaware River. For more information, go to www.pym.org/burlington-qm/burlington.htm. Visitors are warmly welcomed.
