Quakers in Hampshire UK and the Channel Islands

Quaker faith and Quaker practice are interdependent (QF&P p. 14)

In everyday British Quaker usage, the words Quaker faith & practice specifically refer to the core publication of Britain Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (the UK coordinating body). This is often abbreviated simply as QF&P and on this website this abbreviation will mostly be used for references and quotations (as at the end of the previous paragraph on this page).

The book Quaker Faith & Practice "is an attempt to express Truth through the vital personal and corporate experience of Friends. It is largely composed of extracts from Friends' writings: a fitting way of expressing the breadth of Quaker theology. It also describes the current structures (church government) of Britain Yearly Meeting". (from www.quaker.org)

The full contents of the book "Quaker Faith & Practice" can be accessed here, with both a subject index and an on-line search facility.

Advices and Queries is an early section of the 'red book' (also published separately) with a long and interesting history. See here for more details and full contents.
