Activities and trips in 2012

• Can you solve this?

  Access to education is a basic human right. Through it, people are enabled to develop their talents and skills to be able to contribute to society.

  

• The Bahá’í Gardens in Haifa and ‘Akko

  Like all great works of art, these extraordinary sites are tangible expressions of the human spirit.

  

• So many travels already and it’s just the beginning of the year…

  It all started with Olga and Helmut going to Ukraine. In February Asmaa, Janis and Jayden visited family in Egypt. And in March the whole family went on pilgrimage to Haifa, which was a wonderful experience for as all. Going on pilgrimage as a family was Helmut's dream that came true.

The visits to the Holy Shrines, the evening talks by members of the Universal House of Justice and the International Teaching Center, which discussed the question of what it means to be a pilgrim, the conversations with fellow pilgrims helped to calibrate our compasses.
