EVENTS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS

 

NORTHERN IRELAND SUMMER SCHOOL

Summer School this year will take place once again at the popular Lorne Centre just outside Belfast. The School, whose theme is “Ripples of Joy”, will run from Monday 17 to Sunday 23 July.

For further information or to make an initial booking please contact the registrar Negin Elliott

PRICE ROLLBACK!
Not only have prices been held, we have even been able to reduce them slightly from last year!

Speakers include Barney Leith, Patrick O’Mara, Lesley Taherzadeh O’Mara, Val McGinley, Sepideh Taheri, Iain Palin, Dan Wheatley.

We live in interesting times, there is a lot going on in the Bahá'í world at the moment, and this is reflected in the programme. But there will be plenty of light-hearted stuff too. So don’t miss Summer School this year—it’s your event.

Any old Bahá’í books? Let them serve the Faith for someone else if you are finished with them. There will be a second-hand Bahá’í books stall at the School. If you would like to donate them then either bring them to the School or get them to Negin beforehand.
