Quakers believe that everyone can have a direct relationship with God. We find that this relationship can best be experienced if we meet in silence, with nothing pre-planned.
Meeting for Worship couldn't be simpler: you go in and sit down in a plain room with other Quakers and settle into silence, a silence which can become very deep and powerful. After a time, someone may feel inspired to stand up and speak briefly in their own words, or pray, or read from the Bible or some other book, before the meeting settles back into silent waiting.
A Meeting for Worship usually lasts an hour.
The North East Thames area covers the following six meetings:
