General Queries: Friends have assessed the state of our religious society through the use of queries since the time of George Fox. Meetings use queries as a guide for self-examination, as a framework for periodically examining, clarifying and prayerfully considering the direction of our individual lives and the life of the meet-ing community. 

The following general queries are arranged in sets by topic. Each set includes queries for the meeting and for the individual, the latter printed in italics.
