Corvallis Sunday Devotional Gatherings

"The true worshipper, while praying, should endeavor not so much to ask God to fulfil his wishes and desires, but rather to adjust these and make them conform to the Divine Will. Only through such an attitude can one derive that feeling of inner peace and contentment which the power of prayer alone can confer.”

Twin Messengers

Sunday, November 10, 10:30am

Zoom Room opens at 10:15

Many of the world's people await the advent of two divine messengers, in line with many religious traditions.  In the Torah, the Jews are promised the Lord of Hosts and the Messiah. The Gospel foretells the return of Christ and Elijah. In the religion of Muḥammad, it is the promise of the Mahdi and the Messiah. The same holds true for the Zoroastrians and others. Sunday’s program includes writings that tell the story of the promised advent of two successive Manifestations of God, The Bab and Baha’u’llah, through whom “the earth will become another earth; all existence will be renewed” and “the contingent world will be clothed with the robe of a new life.”

All are welcome to enjoy fellowship, readings, and discussion.
