Upon returning to Philadelphia, they sought a fresh, unified form of worship for their growing families.

Rather than detailing membership records or finances, this overview focuses on key events, buildings, community efforts, and CHFM’s place within the broader Quaker tradition. The Centennial timeline draws from the 75th Anniversary history compiled by Shirley Phillips and others, and was completed by Steve Elkinton for the 100th Anniversary.
