Our testimonies are about the way that we, as Friends, try to lead our lives. Putting faith into practice often comes with great difficulty, arising from an understanding of certain value and principles which are central to each Quaker.
Local Meetings are called Monthly Meetings because they meet for business once a month. There are local Meetings that are under the care of Monthly Meetings and these are generally referred to as Worship Groups.
You are welcome here!
