Clerking Quaker Discernment Online
3 June 2026, Online
Are you involved in clerking online or blended Meetings for Worship for Business? Come and explore ways to support discernment and Quaker decision-making in a technological context, whether through or over the screen.
As you may have experienced, clerking an online or blended/hybrid Meeting for Worship for Business raises distinct challenges alongside the usual work of being a Quaker clerk. Friends may feel disconnected or distracted. It can be difficult to make sure that everyone feels part of the same meeting, and that all contributions are heard equally. It can also bring benefits, such as wider participation and clearer focus.
In this session, we will think about the practical aspects of a clerk's role before, during and after an online Business Meeting. We will talk about what it means to centre down in worship and to uphold the discernment process when everyone is in different spaces. We'll also share tips on connecting spiritually in any space.
