Quaker practices are centered around the belief in the inner light, which is the presence of God within each person. Meetings for worship are typically held in silence, allowing individuals to reflect and listen for spiritual guidance. Participants may speak if they feel led to share, fostering a communal experience of worship. Quakers also emphasize simplicity, equality, and peace in their daily lives. They often engage in social justice work and advocate for nonviolence, reflecting their commitment to these values. Many Quakers participate in community service and support initiatives that promote human rights and environmental sustainability.
