United Friends School is open to all regardless of race, sex, creed, nationality or religious background. UFS is supported by Unami, Richland, Gwynedd and Doylestown Monthly Meetings. The school's values are based on the belief that there is that of God in everyone -- an Inner Light or Spirit which makes each of us a unique individual.
Friends believe that individuals can directly receive God's guidance by sitting quietly and being open in body, mind and soul to the ever present Spirit. Silent group meditation is the essential element of Quaker worship, and this experience of group worship remains at the heart of UFS. Through this silent worship each person may experience God's Inner Light firsthand and, during this time, may share the experience with others if he/she chooses.
- Each class meets daily for a short period of silent worship or discussion.
- Monday morning's Meeting for Announcement gives students and faculty time to meet, share news and a brief period of silence to get the week off to a good start.
- Every Wednesday afternoon the entire school meets for a longer period of worship.
