We have a few committees to oversee  the wellbeing of the Meeting community and its finances. Periodically we  host workshops, film series, discussions on environmental, social justice and peace issues, seasonal walks and other events..  Since we draw our membership from various communities in the area we center our spiritual community's life mainly in worship and prayer, offering one another support for the many different ways we witness to our faith in our individual lives.   We have taken under our care, two projects led by members of the Meeting. One is a book project "The Gatherings - Re-imagining Indigenous-Settler Relations" by  Shirley Hager and the collaborative Mawopiyane, published by University of Toronto Press.   The other is a Gleaning project in the central Maine area.  We have pledged ongoing financial support to an Indigenous Elder in Residence program in the University of Maine system, and we offer an annual financial Earthcare Award to local students.  

Members host potluck suppers, fellowship and conversation on a planned Friday of each month.  This moves among the membership.  

On a quarterly basis we have a chance to spend the day with other Quakers from Maine and yearly there is a New England gathering for a week.

Winthrop Center Friends Meeting welcomes LGBTQ + (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer/Questioning +) people into full fellowship in our religious community.

Reflecting on our sense of ourselves as a spiritual community, the Meeting noted: 

"There is a sense of the Meeting as a refuge - a sanctuary of compassion, love, and acceptance.  It is a place we come together to make sense of the world; a place where we hold one another up, hold one another accountable, and support one another’s individual paths. In our places of deepest questioning we feel held till we can “come round right”.
