Reflection Gathering

Our "A" Cluster got together Sunday for the best reflection meeting ever! What a turnout! Some of us old-timers were moved to tears by this great event. After years and years of feeble efforts to promote the Cause we are seeing fabulous fruits. One old-timer, Ali Morales, who was sitting next to me burst into tears of sheer joy when two of his new Baha'i "children" (a couple of youth who had become uplifted from previous low-life activities by his teaching efforts and had just declared their belief in Baha'u'llah) thanked him publicly on stage.

The photo below shows some of the youth who came up front to sing a new song.

Here's a shot of part of the group. There was a great variety of ages and cultures represented. I'd need a wide-angle lense to cover to the whole salon.

We gathered around blankets, chairs and tables for a lunch break below. Here's our group from Mora.Mike Robles gave a bunch of kids rides on his Harley. Here's Amanda (daughter of Alejandra and Luis Dumani) ready to roll.

thank you so much for posting this! it's amazing to see how much the community has grown-- the surest sign of success is the number of UNfamiliar faces in the crowd! ;) and the institute looks so beautiful!! wow...
