“Do not busy yourselves in your own concerns; let your thoughts be fixed on that which will rehabilitate the fortunes of mankind and sanctify the souls and hearts of men” Baha’u’llah. As a Baha’i, a member of the Baha’i Faith, I think this quote from the Baha’i Writings reflects what the ICGS stands for.
The ICGS is here for learning and sharing, showing respect for others’ beliefs and faiths. We come together with open hearts, willing to share our faiths with others, and willing to learn about what others believe, as well. In this way, we are making Sacramento a more welcoming community for all faith traditions.
The ICGS, as well as everyone else, is looking forward to opening things up, events being held in person, with exciting new events and programs taking place this year.
Serene Erby
President
