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.
i24NEWS released a short news video about the history of the Baha’i Faith in Akka. i24NEWS is an Israeli international 24-hour news and current affairs television channel located in Tel Aviv, Israel. It broadcasts in French, English and Arabic. In this short video, we hear about what happened in Akka 150 years ago, when Baha’u’llah and His followers arrived in the prison city.
You can find out more about the 150th anniversary of Baha’u’llah’s arrival in Akka with three podcasts released by the Baha’i World News Service. You can find part one here, part two here, and part three here on Baha’i Blog.
