Our Mission
Providence Friends Meeting is an active spiritual community that is diverse, welcoming and inclusive. Meeting for worship is at the center of the life of our community. We are transparent and open in our organization and activities. Our faith leads us to engage in social justice and peace issues and take an active interest in each other’s lives. We seek humbly to deepen and enrich our spirituality, and discover and nurture the Light that is in every person.

Racial Justice Goals
As Providence Friends Meeting acknowledges and honors the fundamental value and dignity of all individuals, we strive to be a culturally safe space where all individuals and groups are treated with respect in regard to their unique cultural needs and differences.
We strive to build a pluralist, anti-racist community that encourages participation and leadership among all Friends, and supports and elevates partners and community members most affected by racism and bias. In September 2020, our community unified in support of Providence Friends Meeting Statement on Racial Justice and Anti-Racism
Our Climate Crisis
Climate Crisis Committee was formed in 2021 and has been committed to help fulfill Providence Monthly Meeting's and Philadelphia Yearly Meeting's commitment to address climate change, to promote increased awareness in our meeting about climate issues, to educate our Meeting on how, locally, we can reduce our carbon footprints, and to identify opportunities for witnessing to our faith in creating a more and sustainable society.

In response to this issue, Providence Monthly Meeting's Climate Crisis Committee has developed a Climate Issue and Climate Resiliency Resource Library that is updated on an ongoing basis.
We gained Meeting support for a solar array installation at the meetinghouse in early 2022. The installation is complete and has been generating energy since October 2023. If you would like to read about our solar journey click here.
