Children's Classes
Bahai's believe "Every child must be trained in the things of the spirit, so that he may embody all the virtues..." Children's classes are led by trained teachers for children ages 5 to 10.. Lessons are based on Bahai principles and virtues with a focus on how to apply these in everyday life.
Junior Youth Groups
The Junior Youth Spiritual Empowerment program is designed for ages 12 to 15. The purpose is to assist participants in identifying moral implications of speech and action while also empowering them to channel their energies towards strengthening their own character and to serving their community. Groups are guided by trained "Animators." Meetings include study, games, art, community service planning and action.
