Amelia, contacted the Bahais to
learn more about the Faith. She brought along some friends with her when she
met over tea.
I have been searching for a long
time now for a place to belong. I am an
American Lebanese woman who was brought up in the Muslim faith. My parents were very moderate and
progressive. I married a man who was
Presbyterian but I converted for the joint effort of raising our children. However, as the years went on, having tried a
few mosques, I feel like I just don't belong.
I am "too American" and not "Muslim" enough. I have felt very judged and the more I have
read find it hard to be comforted by all of the "fear" concepts of
the Koran. I have a deep belief in God
and feel that we are all one people which is why I was drawn to learn more of
the Baha'i faith.
