The Friends of the 1836 Meeting House of North Andover, Inc. was created to inform, share with the community-at-large and support the ongoing preservation efforts of the historic Meeting House that sits so prominently in North Andover. There is a rich history to the 183-year-old building, including a functioning Paul Revere bell, one of only 23 remaining bells cast by this famous Patriot’s company. The Meeting House is home to the North Parish Unitarian Universalist congregation as well as People’s Pantry food assistance, McVagley Community GBLTQ Youth Support Group and the Great Pond Sangha Buddhist meditation group. In addition the meeting house offers its space to many community-related organizations.
