are Sabbath-keeping Christians, so our weekly worship service is held on
SATURDAY morning. Come and find out the difference a day makes,
especially when that day is God’s Sabbath!http://www.forministry.com/USNYSDBGCFSDBC“
Meeting time: Sundays at 10:30
As a group, Quakers:
* See the spiritual and the secular life as a single continuum, the one illuminating
and sustaining the other.
* Welcome modern science and seek to take its findings into account, revising
traditional beliefs accordingly.
* Take the Scriptures seriously, but examine them critically in the light of modern
science, Biblical scholarship, and practical experience.
* Have a strong sense of the Transcendent, of Divinity, but refuse to be dogmatic
about its nature.
* See theology as a necessarily imperfect attempt to describe the Transcendent,
and are therefore modest about their own Quaker affirmations, and respectful
of those of others.
* Seek to be continually open to new insights, believing that all people may be
open to Divine revelation, which continues to be a source of fresh enlightenment
today.
* See all human beings as embodying something of the Divinity, and hence of
immeasurable worth – and hold the earth’s environment in special reverence as something to preserve,
protect, and respect as part of Creation
* Shun outward forms of piety, believing that “by their fruits you shall know them.”
* Tend to give special attention and consideration to downtrodden and oppressed
individuals or groups, seeking to address that of the Divine in them and that which
is oppressive in the social system.
