Schools
We are very pleased to share the 2026 theme for upcoming virtual and physical school programs – ‘Fostering the Spiritual Health of Families and Communities’ and warmly invite you to participate in a one day Virtual School on Saturday January 17th, 2026.
Dr. Firaydoun Javaheri, former member of the Universal House of Justice, has generously accepted the invitation to speak to those inspired by the vision of Baha’u’llah on this topic, beginning the day with a keynote address entitled “The Nine-Year Plan – Fostering Spiritual Health”. Representatives of the Right of God will provide an interactive workshop and participatory arts activity entitled “Cultivating Spiritual Well-Being in Individuals, Families and Communities through the Lens of the Right of God” to further expand on this theme.
We look forward to this day of learning together, so please mark your calendars and plan to join us!
SAVE THE DATE! To date we have four confirmed physical schools in progress as listed below:
Southern Interior School – hosted at Naramata Centre: 4 pm Friday June 5 to 10 am Sunday June 7, 2026

We hope you’ll also take advantage of the many resources of recorded workshops that were held virtually – still very pertinent to your ongoing efforts to bring friends together in building stronger communities. You’ll find the link for Resources on the main navigation bar.
Heartfelt gratitude to everyone who contributed and participated in the 2025 spring and summer season offerings at the Southern Interior, Fraser Valley and Christina Lake schools! You brought your learning and practice of how to build vibrant communities to life, and explored and experienced the power of transformation and service! Through workshops and presentations, conversations and reflection on experience, volunteering and acts of service, stories and artful expressions, rich environments of learning were enjoyed and community bonds were strengthened and enhanced! Warmest appreciation for each contribution, and for your joyful participation. May you take that spirit and spread its vibrancy outward wherever you reside! We hope to see you again!
