Dublin Monthly Meeting Peace Committee plans to hold another Silent Quaker Peace Witness on Saturday Nov 7 from 11.30am to 12.30pm, outside the gates of St Stephen’s Green at the top of Grafton St, Dublin.
This will be an hour of Quaker Worship on the street, we will have the usual banner which reads “Quaker Peace Witness” and will have leaflets explaining what our silent presence is about for anyone who shows interest.
This venue has proven to be very useful in getting our Peace Witness noticed. It is a busy spot for pedestrians, taxis and the Luas trams. The trams pass by every few minutes and we regularly see passengers looking intently, obviously curious about what is going on.
A statement on the current situation in the Middle East was issued by Ireland Yearly Meeting to the media and the main political parties across the island this morning.

Earlier this year, RTE’s Nationwide team carried out a series of interviews with Friends in Dublin (at Temple Hill, the Historical Library, and a Meeting House) about the Society and its history, and during their trip to Waterford, spoke to Friends about the impact of Quakers on the community there. It should be a very interesting watch and great opportunity to raise our profile – please encourage as many f/Friends to watch as possible.
These interviews aired on their programme next Friday, 2nd October at 7pm, the date having been chosen by the producers to coincide with World Quaker Day, Sunday 4th October.
The programme is now available via RTE Player, at this link.
