Education | |
 | Study Circles Study Circles are a systematic way of learning about Spirituality and the Baha'i Faith, with special emphasis being placed on putting spirituality into practice. The popular Ruhi Books follow themes such as the Life of the Spirit, Arising to Serve, Children's Classes, Baha'i History, and Walking Together. In these Study Circles there is no leader directing the 'right' answers: the Study Circle has a facilitator encouraging everybody's heart-felt input as a valuable contribution, through the exploration of different questions, quotations and themes. If you are interested in taking part in a Study Circle, please contact us or read more info. |
 | Firesides Firesides are an evening of open questions and discussion on a broad range of topics in a homely environment, often beginning with a meal together. If you are interested in attending a Fireside, please contact us |
 | Children's Classes Children's classes bring into a child's life spiritual and emotional skills, character building and an understanding of spirituality. If you are interested in Children's Classes in your home or area, please do contact |
