Living the Living Text

EPISODE 1
THE LIGHTHOUSE PROJECT

The MAS Tarbiya Lighthouse team is pleased to release the first episode of the Lighthouse Project. As the whole nation recently celebrated the 4th of July, MAS Tarbiya Department would like to use the opportunity to explore together some of the foundations of our country and our faith.

Here you will find “Living the Living Text,” episode 1 of the Lighthouse Project. The episode is a package of topics or “beams” around a central theme, each containing articles, resources, discussion topics, and interactive programs. We hope you will take this content in your hands and help the Lighthouse Project shine far and wide within your family, in your chapter, and with your usra or MY Connect.

Think of the possibilities in your circles of influence. The Lighthouse Project is designed to bring MAS members together thinking about the same topics and working on the same page. It is also intended to revive our passion for tarbiya and help local efforts. And very importantly, be sure to check in here from time to time to leave your comments and reflections on your experiences with Living the Living Text!

We hope that you find our humble effort educational, inspiring, and stimulating.
