Rockland Friend Meeting convenes semi-annual called meetings wherein we reflect on the last six months and look ahead to the next six months through the eyes of vitality and viability of the meeting.
This worship sharing discussion will take place during Meeting for Worship.
We welcome our two newest members, Lisa and Rebecca, with a grand potluck outdoors in the backyard. (In the event of inclement weather, the picnic will take place in the dining room.)
We will also welcome all the applicants for the 2025 Rockland Friends Meeting Award to share their projects. Family and friends of the applicants are invited, too.
We will also celebrate those graduating.
