Devotionals
Devotional meetings spring up naturally in a community where a conversation about the spiritual dimension of human existence is growing. In diverse settings, Bahá’ís and their friends and families unite with one another in prayer. There are no rituals; no one individual has any special role. Meetings consist largely of reading prayers and passages from the Bahá’í sacred texts in an informal yet respectful atmosphere. A spirit of communal worship is generated by these simple gatherings, and this spirit begins to permeate the community’s collective endeavours.
- Anyone can start a devotional gathering
- Come together to share prayers and sacred texts
- There is no set way to hold a devotional
- Invite your family, coworkers, neighbors, and friends
- Do what makes sense for you and your community!
There’s so much diversity in Concord and the Baha’i Faith has always been about unity in diversity. That’s what’s so exciting for me personally.
