Confident Quaker Voice Event
November 7 @ 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
What’s really happening for the person next to you in meeting?
You sit in worship together week after week — but do you know what’s going on in their head, in their heart? Do they believe or experience what you believe or experience? Have you ever wanted to ask, and hear the honest answer?
Join us for a full day workshop to explore exactly that: how we talk to each other about our spiritual experience. The day is designed to help Friends open up conversations that often stay unspoken – and we’re looking forward to piloting at Wandsworth meeting house.
Over the day, we’ll:
- Unpack what we actually do in worship – including the words we reach for to describe it.
- Name the barriers that stop us sharing – and what we lose by staying quiet
- Hear some definitions of Quakerism and explore spiritual practice.
- Discover what we gain when we do share, and hear from others.
- Find real opportunities for these conversations, and what each of us can do to make them happen.
Join us from 10am on Saturday 7 November – we’ll break for lunch at around 1pm and finish by 4pm. Please bring your own food for lunch.
