Discovering Quakers provide simple answers to the 10 things people wonder most about Quakers, with posters and leaflets available to order.
The campaign will be run online (through Discovering Quaker’s social media, websites and newsletters) and through posters and leaflets for Meetings to use at their place of meeting and beyond. The campaign aims to demystify questions about Quakers and to help enquirers learn more about Quakerism in an accessible way.
This coordinated campaign will run for the whole of the year, we will focus on answering one of the following 10 questions each month on our social media, blog posts and newsletters for enquirers.
- Are Quakers Christian?
- What happens in a Quaker Meeting?
- Why do Quakers sit in silence?
- Do Quakers believe in God?
- Is Quakerism a cult?
- What do Quakers believe?
- What are Quaker values?
- Is Quaker practice different from meditation?
- Are Quakers welcoming to all?
- How do I try a Quaker meeting?
Posters and leaflets
Each poster links to the relevant question on our landing page which provides more information.
We anticipate collecting requests for posters and leaflets during April and at Yearly Meeting at the start of May. We hope to start dispatching printed materials in mid-May. We are printing posters in sets of 10 – one poster for each question. We are offering each set of posters in three sizes; small (A5), medium (A4) and large (A3).
To avoid waste and make sure we provide Meetings with the materials that suit their needs, we are asking Meetings to tell us their requirements using the request form. You can see higher quality images of the posters on the request form page.
