Quakers worship in `` meetings for worship '' , and at other times these meetings also decide what Quakers should do - these meetings can be called `` meetings for business '' , but other people call them `` meetings for worship for business '' , because they include parts of both worship and business .
There is no ( human ) leader in such a service , Quakers who worship in this tradition often believing that each person is equal before God and is capable of knowing `` the light '' directly . In many yearly meetings in Africa , Asia and parts of the US , worship is programmed .
