Devotional Gatherings
The heart of a devotional gathering is the sharing of prayers and passages from Holy Scriptures. They are a chance for us to learn how to create an uplifting, spiritual atmosphere. The key is to help clear our minds from the anxieties of our daily lives and to meditate on our higher purpose.
