These happen every two months and are an excellent way of helping people understand the Quaker how we manage the meeting.
People can attend in person or on line (on request). This is a particularly important meeting as we are discussing our future within the Joint London Meeting structure.
We use the Quaker business method. The Quaker business method is an unique process for decision-making used by the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers).
It focuses on seeking unity and discernment rather than relying on votes or majority rule. The method emphasizes listening, sharing perspectives, and seeking guidance from a higher power or the "Inward Light".
The key principles
1. Seek Unity: The goal is to find a decision that everyone can agree to and accept, even if they don't fully agree with it.
2. Discernment: Decision-making is approached as a process of seeking guidance and understanding, rather than a debate or a negotiation.
3. Silence: Meetings often begin with a period of silence for contemplation and worship.
4. No Voting: Quakers do not use formal votes, as they believe it can create divisions and undermine the process of seeking unity.
