Germantown Monthly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends

Germantown Friends (Quaker) Meeting is the monthly (Sunday) worship center for the Germantown and nearby communities within the larger city of Philadelphia. Although Friends do not have a creed, they do emphasize certain "testimonies," all of which have social implications: espeicially the testimonies regarding equality, peace, and (environmental) stewardship. Because of its location in a diverse urban neighborhood, Germantown Friends has recently been working especially on issues relating to race, economic inequality, and mass incarceration.
