Bahá’í Life
All Bahá’ís share a common understanding that the purpose of each person’s life is to grow in knowledge of God, and to strive daily to develop our spiritual qualities. Each of us is engaged in this personal process of learning more about the nature and Will of God, and to express that knowledge and capacity through acts of service to others.
We have an active community life that revolves around spiritual, social, educational, and artistic activities. All these activities work towards promoting unity and uplifting the human spirit, reinforcing our human relationships and enhancing our devotion to the sacred. Central among the core activities of Bahá’í community life are Youth, Junior Youth and Children’s activities, Study Circles and Devotional gatherings. We warmly encourage all members of the wider community to join with us in these events which are open to everyone, free of charge.
Devotional Meetings
These gatherings create a unique opportunity for people of different faiths and beliefs to practice collective worship, and experience a mutual spirit of joy, love and fellowship as they come together to share devotional readings from the Holy Writings of the World Faiths.
Study Circles
These are small groups which meet regularly to engage in studies that are based on, and inspired by, the Bahá’í Writings. The purpose of study circles, which combine a friendly social atmosphere with participatory, reflective study and the arts, is to promote personal spiritual transformation and empowerment, and to foster service to the community.
