A few members of our Baha’i community volunteer their knowledge and labor in the Ranson Old Town Community Garden, a project designed to bring together people from all across the city to help provide healthy food for those on limited budgets. The Ranson Old Town Community Gardens Association is operated in partnership with the Jefferson County Community Ministries.
Other Baha’is serve the community in different ways, including volunteering with other civic and local organizations, and through devotional gatherings, children’s classes, the junior youth spiritual empowerment program, and study groups.
