Bible & Quaker Faith and Practice

Perspective note

Comparative historical/source study. The original author's or church's reception is retained; inclusion does not make every claim Oriental Orthodox teaching.

Key points

• The Bible and Quaker Faith and Practice are available to readers in the meeting.
• Their availability does not make this a programmed service of readings.
• Britain Yearly Meeting; Wandsworth Quaker Meeting; London, England. Contemporary unprogrammed meeting. This is an unprogrammed British example. Programmed and pastoral Friends use other forms of worship. Quaker beliefs and identities vary, and not all Friends describe themselves as Protestant or Christian.
• Coordinates, dimensions, materials, room envelope, seat counts and unspecified furniture placement are illustrative rather than surveyed measurements. Teaching sources establish practices, not architectural dimensions. Service equipment is temporary where labeled.
