Michael Borack will be presenting his band's (The Source) seventh album. Members of the band will be present as well. The album, 16 original songs, will be played one song at a time with Michael telling the stories of how each song came to be. There will be time in between for questions and comments, and Graeter's Ice Cream for all at the end! This is a free concert with a free will donation opportunity.

EquaSion's Festival of Faiths

Thank you to our volunteers who participated in last Sunday's Festival of Faiths

The Festival of Faiths is a joyful celebration of faith and friendship, where we build beloved community by coming together to learn from one another, share our traditions, and experience connection across differences. We are already looking forward to 2027!

Cincinnati Friends Meeting is a semi-programmed Quaker meeting, which means that we have a pastor who gives a brief message at the beginning of the service. The rest of the hour together is spent in silent, open worship as we listen to what the still, small voice of God might say to us. Sometimes others might speak out of the silence, or request a hymn. Through such shared ministry we grow together in Spirit and in community.

We are an Open and Affirming congregation, and a Solidarity Congregation in relationship with the Sanctuary Movement. By tradition we are Christian, but we recognize that the world is interdependent, composed of many cultures and faith traditions. We seek to grow together spiritually and learn from one another in peace. Respecting our differences, we seek a more compassionate and loving world. We welcome everyone interested in our way of worship and the Quaker testimonies: simplicity, peace, integrity, community, and equality.
