The progress of the campaign to find new friends is steadily unfolding. One of the main goals of this outreach is to augment the neighborhood children's and junior youth activities with new facilitators. The campaign aims to introduce the process of service for the community-at-large and, by extension, all of humanity, alongside a brief introduction to the purpose and teachings of the Bahá'í Faith. This two-fold purpose in our interactions is assisted by a constant attention to friendship for all who cross our paths and is galvanized by a complete reliance upon divine aid.
This weekend we again felt welcomed by those we met in the neighborhoods. With children playing in yards, youth visiting one another's homes, and families gathering to relax with one another, the community life we found was strong. Some neighbors, though, also expressed apprehension about the future, unsure of what the economy, jobs, and the housing market had in store. Being out on the sidewalks reminds us of the importance of sharing this message and offering these opportunities for service.
We will be continuing this process throughout the week, mostly in the evenings, as we learn with others about how to create a united world. If you would like to join us, we would love to accompany one another on this path. With much love,
NC15 ATC
