Study circles are regular gatherings of people interested in exploring the life
of the spirit and in reflection on the Bahá’í Writings. Devotional gatherings offer
opportunities for spiritual advancement through intimate communion with God. Regular
children’s classes focus on the moral and spiritual education of children and youth,
foster a sense of world citizenship, and promote the value of a life of service
to humanity. Special groups for junior youth seek to empower these pre-teens to
view themselves as active agents of change towards the building of a better world.
