Zoom
In addition to our in-person meetings, we meet on Zoom every Sunday at 11 a.m. (Contact us for the link)
In person
We meet at 11 a.m. every Sunday.
Address
The Greene Centre, 1090 Greene, Westmount, QC, H3Z 1Z9
- Near Lionel-Groulx and Atwater metros (Lionel-Groulx is slightly closer).
- Free two-hour parking available in the streets surrounding the Greene Centre (for instance on Greene or rue Prospect).
- Please note that the Greene Centre is a nut-free environment. We are working toward becoming a scent-reduced meeting.
We meet in the sunroom on the Greene Centre’s main floor. All are welcome. Do stay after for tea, if you can.
Time
Every Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to noon. We suggest arriving a few minutes beforehand but we much prefer your company to your absence! We joyfully welcome children — we have a special event for children on the 3rd Sunday of the month. If possible please do give us a few days notice.
If this will be your first time at a Quaker Meeting, you may want to read this information about what to expect.
Health precautions
For visitors:
- If you’re experiencing symptoms (flu, COVID, upset stomach, etc.), please visit us at a later time.
Our precautions that are always in effect:
- The two air purifiers in the sunroom will remain on at medium before, during and after worship. An attempt will be made to keep their fans functioning at a low noise level and yet at an effective speed.
- Chairs will remain well spaced.
- At least a couple of windows will be opened (a fraction in cold weather, temperature permitting, more in warm weather).
- The meeting will obtain high quality (N95 or KN95) masks to give to anyone who wants to wear a mask, and will make it known that they are available.
- We encourage attenders experiencing gastric or respiratory symptoms to visit us at a later time.
Moreover, we encourage those still concerned about their safety after enactment of the above provisions, to contact us for assistance with the following:
- To sit close to an air purifier
- Assistance (both material and financial) in purchasing a superior quality mask which provides enhanced safety in conditions such as ours. The meeting will have information and advice available on this topic.
Finally, note that we provide two online Zoom meetings weekly. The Sunday Zoom is connected to the in-presence meeting at the Greene Centre. People attend these meetings for various reasons, including a desire to minimize contact with others and prevent illness.
Anyone with comments or concerns about our policy is encouraged to contact us.
