Join us for a group visit to the Bahá’í House of Worship in Wilmette — one of only seven Bahá’í temples in the world and the only one in North America. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places and named one of the “Seven Wonders of Illinois,” the temple’s dome rises 135 feet and is surrounded by beautiful gardens and fountains. We’ll tour the grounds and Welcome Center starting at 11:45 am, then at 12:30 pm attend the Sunday Devotional Program, a half-hour service featuring a cappella singing and readings on a spiritual theme. An optional group lunch will follow.
