Please join us on Sunday (4 March 2018) at 9:15 AM for our adult religious education class.  We will be learning about the wisdom of the Baha’i Faith.

This mid-19th century faith — founded in Iran by Siyyid Ali Muhammad (“The Bab”) and carried forth by the prophet Baha’ullah — has now spread all over the world with temples on every continent except Antarctica.

Its major theological tenets are “unity of humanity and the unity of all religions, with the ultimate goal of creating a unified humanity without racial, ethnic, class, or religious prejudice.”

Like Unitarian Universalists, the Baha’is believe that truth has been revealed in many generations.

Join us to learn more about this faith that holds diversity and acceptance as some of its most prized ideals.

We will be learning about “Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra (A Star Trek Story).”

You’re probably asking what does a Star Trek:  The Next Generation episode have to do with the study of world religions?

To find out, you must boldly go where no All Souls adult religious education class has gone before.

Please note that we are starting 15 minutes earlier this morning in order to have time for the episode and time afterward for discussion.

This will not be a permanent change — just for this morning.

Please make every effort to be on time.
