Moving with the spirit

Modern-day service pioneers are relocating where they can work alongside neighbors to transform lives

Young adults preparing for lives of service. Older folks exploring new ways to use their hard-won experience. Baha’is and friends of all ages are moving to city neighborhoods and small towns across the United States where there are opportunities to initiate and sustain community-building efforts. Their service may include:

• Reaching out to residents and having conversations on spiritual topics.
• Hosting devotional gatherings.
• Facilitating study circles, junior youth groups or children’s classes.
• Visiting and accompanying others taking part in this movement.
