‘Abdu’l Baha was once asked, ‘What is Satan?’ he replied in three words: ‘The insistent self’. Abdul Baha’s take on the 19 day feast: Do not call it a meeting. Call it a confluence of holy souls; A convocation of those who love the Lord; A retreat for the people of the All-Merciful; A palace-hall for all who sing His praise; For the members of that gathering are each one a lighted taper, and that council a mansion of the moon and stars. It hath been blessed by the Lord of all mankind, and hath made current the Feast as set forth in the Most Holy Book. -Abdul Baha |

From the Assembly: The loan for the Center was approved by the bank on Friday 8/18/2000. Hopefully we will hold the feast of Mashiyyat at the center. The LSA would like to thank all the Twenty/Twenty plan participants. Without your continued contributions this would not be possible. LSA’s budget goal is set for $800/month (12) total. Estimated budget for the center is: $460.00 monthly mortgage, $140.00 Utilities, $35.00 Phone for a total of $635.00/Month (12). |
