Quakers in New Earswick hold a Local Meeting for Business each month. All members of the meeting can take part.
In this meeting for worship, matters relating to the organisation, activities and policies of the meeting are considered.
Decisions are taken using the Quaker business method. They are agreed and recorded in written minutes during the meeting by our Local Meeting Clerks.
The Local Meeting appoints Friends to serve on committees, which look after particular areas such as the care of our meeting house. These committees report back to the Local Meeting.
Our elders have care of the spiritual life of the meeting. Our overseers carry out pastoral care of our Friends and attenders. Elders and Overseers are appointed by York Area Meeting.
