The camp day runs from 9 am - 3 pm (with drop off between 8:30 am - 9 am). Children bring their own lunch and snacks.
 
Team building skills are important at Peace Camp, and children can learn through games to work together, overcome obstacles and reach goals through cooperation. 

The camp is held at the historic Gwynedd Friends (Quaker) Meeting. Outdoor activities, such as games and playground time, will be offered. Large, bright indoor areas are also used for activities. Gwynedd Friends is conveniently located at the intersection of Route 202 and Sumneytown Pike in Gwynedd, Pennsylvania.

Welcome

Welcome!

 Welcome 1             Welcome 4

Folks come to us looking for a spiritual home. Please visit. Quakers believe in the presence of God in everyone. Regardless of race, nationality, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or reason, you will find a warm welcome from us.
 
In addition to our belief in that of God in everyone, we believe in direct communion with the Divine. In other words, Spirit speaks and guide us directly. Our worship is in silence as we wait expectantly for that connection.
 
In worship we gather in silence, quiet our minds, calm our hearts, and seek the source of love and truth in our lives. At times, Friends feel called to stand and speak a message given from the divine.
 
We eagerly welcome believers of all faiths as fellow members of God's universal community. Our Meeting for Worship service, Sundays at 9:30 AM, is open to everyone in person and on a Zoom link. We also have Worship on Wednesday evenings at 8PM on the same Zoom link.
 
We enter our worship rooms quietly. The worship begins as you enter in silence. There are no assigned seats. We do not have a pastor who leads us.
 
We Quakers bear witness to our core beliefs through direct action on a variety of social concerns, like housing the homeless, supporting food banks, and standing vigil for peace. We work locally, nationally, and internationally. Quakers often say, “Our service begins when worship ends.”
