Southeastern Yearly Meeting

Quakers in Florida, Coastal Georgia & South Carolina

You Are Welcome

We gather for spiritual renewal and friendship, and advocate for peace, social justice, and care for the earth.

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 – 9th Month (September) 2024

1st week:

When have I allowed my own agenda to get in the way of really listening to others? When have I been able to put aside my own agenda to engage fully with another?

2nd week:

In what ways have I exemplified the teachings of Jesus in my interactions with others? What are things that keep me from doing so?

3rd week:

How do those who have gone before me – the cloud of witnesses – give me encouragement to do what I am called to do?

4th week:

What is my present leading, whether large or small, in which I am following the promptings of the Spirit? Am I able to discern work that is spiritually authentic and grounded in God?

5th week:

How do I see my Meeting naming and supporting the spiritual gifts of its members and attenders? What gifts do I recognize in myself, and how do I stay faithful regarding this?
