Sunday Sessions: Newcomers’ Questions about Quakerism
17 January 2027, Online
In a different kind of session for Woodbrooke, we are inviting whole meetings to gather together after Meeting for Worship for a discussion. In this session Friends are invited to join us in an exploration of newcomers' questions about Quakerism through shared learning and reflection.
Our experience and feedback have shown us that participants would find it helpful to have learning opportunities where Friends from their meetings are also present and able to join in the discussion. We are offering these sessions in response to this feedback, particularly for those who would value support with discussion and learning sessions.
This is an opportunity for meetings to come together and consider and recall the questions that we have been asked or that we have asked ourselves about Quakerism. We will have time to practice simple, personal responses to these questions together.
Meetings are encouraged to share lunch together as part of the day either before or after the Sunday session. Each meeting will need a named Friend or small organising group to coordinate the physical space and Zoom connection locally. Seeing other meetings gathered on screen offers a rare opportunity to learn alongside the wider Quaker community while remaining rooted in local community, though being a short session there will be very limited time in which to hear from each other.
