Friends (Quakers) meet each Sunday at Rockford Chapel on the Antioch campus. Meetings for worship are held in silence at 8:30 and 11 a.m., with individuals delivering spoken ministry when led by the spirit. Quakers recognize a measure of divine presence in every person, and their quiet worship times, called meetings, are intended to deepen devotion to this Spirit. Religious education is offered for children and adults Sundays from 10 to 11 a.m., September through May. An additional meeting for worship is held at Rockford Chapel each Wednesday from 7 to 8 a.m. The meeting sponsors a peace witness every Saturday at noon on the corner of Limestone Street and Xenia Avenue. Yellow Springs Friends have been active in peace and social concerns at local, national and international levels. In the 1970s, this body initiated formation of an extended-care facility in Yellow Springs now known as Friends Care Community; assisted living and independent living accommodations have been added.

The cornerstone of the first St. Paul Catholic Church was laid in 1856 on a lot at the corner of West North College and High streets. In 1908 the current church at the corner of Phillips and Elm streets was dedicated in a building that once housed the First Christian Church. St. Paul has 325 registered family units on its roster, a religious education program for approximately 60 children and youth, and adult education programs offered throughout the year. The parish praises God in word, song and Eucharist every week in its masses on Saturday at 5 p.m. and Sundays at 11 a.m. The church is the site of the annual Lenten luncheon series, sponsored by the Yellow Springs Christian Association. The church has an outreach to various groups and persons in the area. It rejoices in the richness of the Roman Catholic tradition and in the diversity of a worshipping community drawn from the variety of Yellow Springs and its environs.
