What do Quakers have to offer when there is pain and distress in body, mind and spirit? Can their beliefs and worship help in the processes of healing?

Do Quakers Pray is a short book for the Quaker Quicks series that considers questions such as "What is prayer?" and explores whether, when and how Quakers might pray. Do we pray together? Do we pray alone?

These reflections address the challenge of reaching for right relationship in all aspects of our lives. They invite us to consider how we show up - with ourselves, our communities and the world around us - in the light of Quaker values and practice.
