A new Quaker Worship Group is being formed in County Leitrim – a county where there has never before been a Friends’ meeting. Participants at the first meeting came from Donegal, Fermanagh, Leitrim, Sligo and Belfast.

Future meetings of the North West Worship Group are planned for 3:00pm on the second Sunday of the month at Kinlough Community Centre, Co. Leitrim F91 T802.  The next meeting will take place on Sunday Jan. 11, and every second Sunday thereafter.

You can contact Rachel Cave (rrc@iol.ie) for more information.

Once this Worship Group is a bit more firmly established, it will be added to the “Find a Meeting” section of this website.
