The quaker-catholic connection goes back far:
The humble servant of Christ, St. Francis...was placed in great agony of doubt as to what he should do: whether to give himself only to continual prayer or to preach sometimes. He wanted very much to known which of these would please our Lord Jesus Christ most. And as the holy humility that was in him did not allow him to trust in himself or in his own prayers, he humbly turned to others in order to know God's will in this matter.
