Find Quakers
You are welcome at any of our Meetings and Worship Groups! We are a mix of newcomers and longtime members, with people of various religious backgrounds, gender identities and orientations.
Our Worship
Quaker worship is grounded in silence, where we listen deeply for what is in our hearts, for inner guidance, and a sense of connection. There is no program or sermon.
Our Faith
The heart of our faith is the experience of the inner source of spiritual connection, renewal, and guidance that is present in everyone. We have no creedal beliefs; faith is a way of life.
What we do
Southeastern Yearly Meeting brings together Friends from Meetings and Worship Groups in our region to share resources, deepen our faith, and work together to advocate for peace, social justice, and sustainability. We hold events in person and online, gathering for spiritual renewal, collaboration, friendship, and fun. We connect Friends to the wider Quaker community, and write and publish the SEYM Faith & Practice.

Queries for the Journey
The Worship and Ministry Committee offers “Queries for the Journey,” weekly queries to help Friends center in their daily journey through quiet, contemplative reflection. New queries will be posted monthly.
Queries for the Journey – 10th Month (October) 2024
1st week:
Where am I reminded of the bits of grace I am given every day? Do I accept more than I resist or ignore?
2nd week:
Does my monthly meeting encourage the growth of online/hybrid worship, or is the goal to diminish it? Is there a sense of the gift of connection with those who cannot attend otherwise, or Friends who visit from far away? Do we see opportunity or inconvenience?
3rd week:
How does my life ‘speak’ Quaker values to others? How do I share my portion of Truth when the moment calls for it?
4th week:
How often do we hold ‘be not afraid’ as a companion in moments beyond our comfort level? Do we find the words based in Love and rising up in Spirit?
