Monthly Meeting of Hong Kong

I recently found out that there is a Quaker Meeting in Hong Kong, my hometown!

It is an independent Monthly Meeting, and due to her relatively small size, Friends who attend her hold their Meeting for Worship in a chamber in St. John's Cathedral, an Anglican congregation in Hong Kong (as well as the seat of the Sheng Kung Hui (Anglican) Archbishop of Hong Kong).

Well, the Anglicans ruthlessly persecuted Friends from 1652-1689 A.D., after which Friends graciously allowed them to preach and minister in Pennsylvania, so I guess it makes perfect sense for them to support our missionary work in Hong Kong then.
