Words are sometimes inadequate in describing this worship experience. We believe, as did the early Christians, that wherever two or more are gathered in God’s name, God is there. Over time, our meeting for worship becomes a spiritual community. We strengthen, learn from, and help each other in our lives, both spiritually and in daily living.
The Society’s existence would be impossible without the joining of the divine and human that occurs during a gathering of earnest seekers. Others may know of Quakers because of their peace and justice activities; Friends know themselves because they have met in worship to encounter the Spirit that motivates. As George Fox described, following the promise of Jesus and the tradition of early Christians, a meeting for worship marks the 13occasion when the divine Spirit called Christ is present to teach the people. The meeting is never complete until they respond.
