The Festival of Faith

„One must know that it is impossible to turn to God...”

Amid the flow of life, a moment before the return to routine – and for some of us right in the midst of it – comes the Mimouna as the “Festival of Faith,” which reminds us that faith is a deep inner wellspring within us that grants an anchor and strength. The intellect and the emotion explain the way and reveal how to approach it and to live from it in daily life. The Mimouna is the moment before the great flow, one that reminds us of our essence – to find the way to the treasure that lies within us, the treasure of faith.
