Quaker Faith And Practice is a tradition among the Religious
Society of Friends dating back to its beginnings in the 1650's in
England. The practice started as a series of letters containing
advice and counsel for ministers traveling in Europe and North
America and Queries and Advice for the Friends Meetings struggling
under persecution from the English church and crown.Eventually,
these letters were collected, printed, and distributed to the
increasing number of Friends Meetings around the world. These books
were regularly updated over the years as Friends labored over
religious concerns related to living the Gospel in a society and
wider world less concerned with being their brother's or sister's
keeper. For example, Quakers struggled with the fair and equal
treatment of women, Native Americans, slaves, and apprenticed
persons long before those concerns became part of the social
discourse. Quakers have been committed to peace and non-violence
since 1660, refusing on a spiritual and scriptural basis to
participate in war and any industry that contributes to war. In
this valued tradition, Southeastern Yearly Meeting of the Religious
Society of Friends offers their current understanding, advice, and
guidance of where the Gospel is calling Friends in the southeast
U.S. to stand in the world today. We invite you to sped a little
time getting to know a little about us. Southeastern Yearly
Meeting's Faith and Practice (342 paperback pages) includes
sections on faith and practice, Quaker values present-day
organization and structure explaining the bottoms-up practice of
discerning decisions by sense-of-the-meeting, common worship and
business meeting practices, references including an extensive
Reading List, Glossary, and short history of SEYM.
