We've not yet been able to learn much about the Quakers in Montana, beyond the fact that there seems to be at least a few Quakers in each of several cities in Montana. What little we know about the Missoula Quakers was gleaned from their
Facebook Page or from a
Blog.

We will let an attendee relate his impression of this group of
Friends Meeting.
Being an occasional attendee and member of this Monthly Meeting, I consider this (with some bias) to be a very nice meetinghouse with an even nicer community of Quakers. A clean, relatively spacious, and well-air-conditioned building that is also wheelchair-accessible which also has a kitchen, dining room, and a children play area that can also be rented during the week. There is a small but committed and fairly dynamic group of Quakers who come to meeting regularly, as well as quite a few sporadic attendees and visitors. Community events and game nights make Missoula Monthly Meeting an even tighter-knit group. Anyone in the Missoula area interested in Quaker meetings for worship (every Sunday morning) or a small gathering space to rent for a short time should look no further!
