What do Quakers do at their meetings?
Friends are well-known for the nature of their meetings. Conservative Friends meet in silence, with different individuals speaking when they feel they have a leading from the Holy Spirit. The time of silence can be meditative, reflective, and many other things as well, but conservative Quakers like to call the silent meeting “a time of waiting for the Holy Spirit”. To wait on the Holy Spirit means to ask for inner guidance, for help in difficult decisions, or in understanding more about the world in which we live.
