MeetUp link: https://meetu.ps/c/4WFGz/tG1bd/a Email Ramin Gillett at ramin.gillett@gmail.com About us: Inspired by similar meetup groups across the country, we have started our own group here in Asheville, NC as an act of service to our community with the goal of creating (with your help!) a space for deeper conversation, connection, reflection, and action. Individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and beliefs gather together each week to explore uplifting (and sometimes challenging) topics and to engage respectfully and civilly in elevated conversations, inquiry, consultation, and mutual learning. Using short selections from the Bahá'í teachings as a starting point, we hope to grow together and learn from one another as we seek to build bridges of unity and respect for all humanity.
