Recently, two members of the Newbury Bahá’í community had the opportunity to travel to Almaty, Kazakhstan, where they were warmly welcomed by Bahá’í friends in the city.
From the moment they arrived, they were welcomed by friends with big hearts who made them feel at home. They were invited to a Feast, where they shared prayers, conversations and fellowship. The friends also kindly took them on a tour of the city, giving them the chance to discover Almaty and experience some of its beautiful places and delicious foods.
One of the most uplifting parts of the visit was meeting the young Bahá’ís in Almaty. Kind, welcoming and full of potential, they are actively contributing to the life of their community. The local Bahá’í centre also provided a warm and welcoming space for gatherings and community activities.
The visit was a beautiful reminder that wherever we travel, we can find sincere friends connected by the same spirit of service, friendship and fellowship. The warmth and generosity of the friends in Almaty made the journey truly memorable and left our visitors with grateful hearts and renewed inspiration.
