Radiant Hearts
Radiant Hearts is a multimedia program aimed at helping families memorize Baha’i prayers and short quotations from the Writings of Baha’u’llah, and study spiritual qualities together. The program consists of 19 lessons, one for each of the Baha’i months plus a shortened lesson for the period of Ayyam-i-Ha. Each lesson focuses on a spiritual quality, and consists of a prayer and a quotation set to music, two songs, and simple activities (including printables) for each day of the month.
Go to the Radiant Hearts main page to find out more about the program and download the materials to get started.
