What's this about?</h2><p>You may have been coming to Quaker meeting for a couple of weeks or a +couple of years. Sometimes it's difficult to find time after meeting to +have the further discussions about Quakerism you would like: this day is a chance to +have deeper discussions and ask questions. You might be looking for a +chance to discuss what happens for you in meeting for Worship and +whether it's the same as for other people, or you might want to chat +about putting faith into action. You might be interested in how your +experience of Quakerism so far fits in with Quakerism across the +country or across the world or how over 400 years of Quaker history +has got us to where British Quakers are today. You may be interested +to find out more about how Quakers organise and make decisions. We aim to +answer your questions and to create a safe space to have these +discussions. We hope that by the end of the event you will feel more +confident calling yourself a Quaker, or at least have a broader +understanding of the breadth of beliefs and practices within Quakers +today.</p><p>All of the above is happening on Saturday in Stirling. If you live near +enough, or can manage to stay somewhere nearby, please also consider joining us +for Meeting for Worship at Dunblane Meeting on Sunday morning, followed by an +opportunity to discuss our experiences over a simple lunch courtesy of Dunblane +Friends.</p></div><div><h2>2.
