Baha’is believe in the power of prayer and you’ll find Baha’is and their friends, throughout the world, getting together to pray. This is often referred to as a ‘devotional gathering’ or ‘devotional meeting’, and they happen in diverse settings, whether in cities or villages.
Baha’i Blog Studio Sessions is an initiative where we invite Baha’is and their friends from around the world to come into a studio and share the Baha’i Writings put to music.
In this Baha’i Blog Studio Session, we’re in Seattle, USA with Shay Morris-Doty and Olivia Rahbin singing “O Hijo del Hombre (O Son of Man)” in both Spanish and English, and based on the Writings of Baha’u’llah.
This song was filmed and recorded in Seattle, USA, August 2019.
