‘. . . a child who has lost his parents . . .’

Welcome to Thames Valley Bahai Community’s regular ‘thought for the month’ Bahai webpost.

Each thought is taken from the Bahai Reference Library.

Here’s September’s ‘thought for the month’“There are many things which will, if neglected, be wasted, and come to nothing. How often in this world do we see a child who has lost his parents and who, unless attention be devoted to his education and training, can produce no fruit. And better off dead than alive is he who produceth no fruit. . . .” (From a Tablet – translated from the Persian) [11]

From Reading to Haifa with love . . .

Saying goodbye to Ridwan and Ewa
A farewell get-together for Ridwan and Ewa

It was a farewell get-together filled with love as Thames Valley’s Bahá’í Community said goodbye to Ridwan and Ewa. The couple are leaving Reading to serve in Haifa, the world HQ of the Bahá’í Faith.

Thames Valley Bahai Igan Hayati said: “Those who got to know Ridway and Ewa will know how much they will be missed – their love, hospitality, generosity, and selfless service and devotion to the Faith. They have promised us that they will regularly say prayers for our cluster at the shrines.”
