Air Ruhi ;)




If you haven't gotten your boarding pass to Air Ruhi, it's definitely time for you to run to the departure lounge and see if you could still catch the flight. ;-)

Been serving on the cluster growth committee for almost a year now, and i must say it truly has been a learning experience for me. It's not just another committee, but one that overlooks the progress of the various core activities in the whole cluster. (petaling jaya for ours) and in case i haven't mentioned in any of my previous post, these core activities that the Baha'i community is actively serving in are 1) children's classes (in my neighborhood it's called the Unity School) - our teachers are trained in a series of courses and this virtue + spiritual-centred classes are offered free of charge as a community service project 2) junior youth gatherings - young adults and youth who are also trained, are to facilitate a group of youth aged 11-14 based on a series of books that follow the story of few characters through discussions, activities, that are contemporary and definitely relevant to their age group, not just to open up their critical mind, but to expose them to the sweet savor of service 3) devotional gatherings - opening homes for people of various faith to come together and pray 4) the Ruhi books are sequence of courses facilitated by a tutor in a group of not bigger than 10, to discuss and reflect on the Words of God and how we can practice them in our daily lives.

My brief explanation definitely won't do justice to how important these core activities are in building a foundation for a good community. but you know, i'm just an email or a phone call away. =D

fasting month is fast approaching - i'm nervous about it, also excited. spring is coming, yeay!
