In addition to our weekly meetings for worship, we gather once a month for business, receiving reports, discussing programs and making decisions. All decisions pertaining to our corporate life are made at the monthly meeting for business. There is no hierarchy of power within the structure of our Meeting. The meeting for business is convened in a spirit of worship where all present seek to know what God's leading is in regard to the decisions or matters before us. Because of this desire to follow God's leading (or, as Friends often say, to follow the Light), a vote is never taken; rather, a decision is only enacted when a sense of the meeting emerges.

All are welcome, members and nonmembers alike, to attend the monthly meeting for business. The only prerequisites for attendance are a concern for the life of the Meeting and a willingness to seek patiently for God's leading.
