The Queries are a means for the Meetings to practice both corporate and individual self examination in living their temporal and spiritual lives. They are read and considered for business.
Seventh-Month Query suggested by Baltimore Yearly Meeting:
Caring for Others
Do you respect that of God in every person?
Do you search yourself for and strive to eliminate prejudices such as those related to race, religion, gender, age, sexual orientation and economic condition?
In what ways do you accept and appreciate differences among your friends and associates?
Do you avoid exploiting or manipulating others to accomplish ends, however worthy?
