Hot Topic Discussion about Quakerism - November 2 at 9:00 AM

Peterson Toscano shares his personal journey from active ministry in conservative evangelical churches to finding a spiritual home among Quakers. Along the way, world events and personal needs reshaped his faith, leading him to a practice that emphasizes silence, equality, and community over creed. Today, as a member of Millville Friends Meeting, Peterson embraces Quaker spirituality as a gay man of faith. He will share how Quaker worship creates space for people of all beliefs and how this tradition helped him rediscover his voice as a communicator and creative artist.
