The general community is invited to join our Christmas Candlelight Service via Zoom. There will be readings of Scripture from the nativity story interspersed with hymns and carols. Only members and regular Meeting attenders and their families will be invited to attend in person. We apologize for this inconvenience made necessary by the ongoing pandemic, but we hope that via Zoom you can join us electronically to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ and enjoy the sounds of the season. As always, we will be accepting donations for the Mercer Street Friends, which can be sent as a check to P.O. Box 456 in Crosswicks, NJ 08515. We have discontinued collecting any toys or other non-monetary donations.
