Friends from Around the World in the Holy Land – October 2026

Two members of our Newbury Bahá’í Community are in the Holy Land, alongside Bahá’ís from all around the world, sharing in a special moment of unity, friendship and spiritual connection.

Prayers were offered for peace, the oneness of humanity, and a world where all people can live together in harmony.

During their visit, they also had the opportunity to visit sacred Bahá’í places, including the prison cell where Bahá’u’lláh was imprisoned.

Cluster Reflection Meeting – October 2026

During the recent cluster meeting at the BTC, an engaging and creative activity called “Pass the Parcel” was introduced, this time reimagined for adults! As the music played and eventually stopped, whoever was holding the parcel had to answer a thought-provoking question in exchange for a chocolate.

One of the questions asked was: “What contribution are you going to make before the next cluster meeting, or what steps will you take to advance the plan by then?”

Children creating a montage of leaves etc., with things that we would do before the next Cluster Reflections meeting.

It was a wonderful reminder of how much impact a touch of creativity can have, transforming a regular meeting into a memorable and interactive experience.
