Devotional
Gatherings
Devotional Gatherings'
are regularly scheduled meeting times of collective worship - the
exaltation of God - and sharing a devotional spirit of joy, love and
fellowship. Readings are taken from the Bahá'í Writings and the Holy
Scriptures of Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Zoroastrian,
and Buddhism.
 Participants
are often encouraged to bring their prayer book, Bahá'í Scripture,
Bible, Qur'án, Torah, and selections of other Sacred Writings to
share and prayer requests are often honored. The musical selections
are diverse -- coming from a variety of cultures and styles including
Gospel, Classical, folk, Latino, and others -- all contributing
to an embracing and joyous experience.
There is no established ritual, no request for funds, and light
refreshments are often served. All are welcome to bring their Holy
Book and join in the exaltation of God. Also, special prayer requests
for assistance, health, the departed, and requests are honored and
remembered.
All are always warmly welcomed!
