For over three centuries Quakers have used the spiritual journal to record their spiritual life and journeys. The ministry and meditations on this page are spiritual insights from individual members or attenders of Eugene Friends Meeting and do not necessarily represent the attitudes, beliefs, or leadings of our Meeting as a whole.
“In meeting for worship individuals gather in prayer and silence, waiting expectantly on the Spirit … Vocal ministry arises out of this silent worship. Vocal ministry is more than a mere urge to share a personal observation. It is a spontaneous outpouring that occurs when an individual experiences inward and outward signs prompting the sharing of a message from the Source … Out of our own experience with the Divine, Friends share insights with fellow worshippers or offer praise or prayer or song. ”
