Feast of Sultan/Sovereignty (Baha’i)
January 18 - January 19
Wherever they live, Baha’is gather every 19 days for what we call a Feast. Observance begins at sunset on the 18th and ends at sunset on the 19th. This is a members-only event comprising three parts:
1. A spiritual portion that’s the time for prayer and reflection;
2. A business portion for consultation about administrative issues: plans for forming classes, organizing to perform community service, observing holy days, or any ideas or projects community members wish to discuss. It’s also a time when local members can ask their Local Assembly to forward their concerns to the National Assembly;
3. A social portion that can consist of anything from just glasses of water to a full-course dinner.
