Current Queries and Advices
MEETING FOR WORSHIP
Query:
Are our Meetings for Worship held in expectant waiting for Divine guidance, with a living silence in which we feel drawn together in the Light by the presence of God?

Advices:
- Be prompt and diligent in attendance at Meetings.
- Come to Meeting with expectant hearts and minds prepared for communion with God.
- Be faithful, be patient, and persevere in our service as messengers of Truth.
- To everyone is given a share of the responsibility for the Meeting for Worship, whether through silence or through the spoken word.
