First Friends is a thriving, progressive Quaker Meeting in the city of Indianapolis, Indiana. We consider ourselves a loving, inclusive, joyous gathering of people, seeking to know Truth under the leadership of God’s Spirit.


All are welcome no matter race, age, cultural background, sexual orientation and identity, marital status, physical and mental ability, family structure, or economic circumstance.


Our hope is that through this worship experience you will discover our faith community is unlike any other, where silent meditation is as important as the spoken word, where we emphasize the importance of one’s personal encounter with the Divine, and where we seek to support one another as we discover Truth together.


Now, we invite you to center down and enter this virtual worship space with us.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
