You can take part in Quaker meetings ( worships or services in other places) any Sundays as you wish and you may continue to do so for many years, until such time you yourself feel the urge to do so.  The Quakers address one another as Friend. Some of those at a meeting are Attenders and Visitors and Others are Members, the latter being those who make a financial contribution to the local meeting
annually.  Rest assured that no such distinctions are never made obvious, except the first time you attend when the Elders will probably greet to welcome you.  You will find, in due course, meetings are different from places to places, as after all, a gathering of the local people makes up a meeting.

I hope this helps and am sorry you might have waited all this time to find a response to your question to this site.
