Our Worship...
... is silent and unprogrammed, and subject to the guidance of the
Holy Spirit.
A period of time, perhaps twenty minutes, is used to center into an inward stillness.
Spoken messages come from the spiritual depth of one's life and from the leading of the Holy Spirit.
To be absorbed, each message needs to be followed with a period of silence which allows for deepening.
When the vocal and silent ministry speak to the condition of those present and is developed and deepened in the Truth, a profound sense of spiritual community occurs that freshens and delights. This is what we call a "gathered Meeting."
Meeting for Worship end after about an hour when the head of Meeting, on the facing bench, shakes hands with those nearby. We then greet those sitting around us in a similar manner.
