What Happens in a Quaker Meeting for Worship?

We wait in silence for the guidance of the Holy Spirit, seeking the divine through the simplicity of unprogrammed worship.

A period of time is used to center into an inward stillness.

When we are moved to speak, we speak the truth as we 
understand it from the depths of our own experience.

Each message is followed with a period of silence so that 
each may take root. 

When the vocal and silent ministry speak to the condition of 
those present,  a profound sense of spiritual communion occurs 
that awes and delights.  

Friends call this experience a "gathered meeting." 
Such meetings require both faith and practice.
