ZAC’s Grand Reopening!
Dear community members and friends,
As we approach the mid-point of 2021, many of us are inching through this year with mixed emotions. In many ways, the first half of 2021 has not seen many changes from 2020. For our families and friends across the globe in India and other regions where the situation remains challenging, we send our prayers for relief from the pandemic-related hardships. For us in the US, through the blessings of Ahura Mazda we embark on the latter half of 2021 with cautious optimism. Indeed, the ZAC is working toward finding ways to safely bring us back into each others’ presence. Our Arbor Day event on April 22 was a grand example of one of our first ZAC events which featured in-person attendance since we went on lockdown in early 2020.
We next look forward to the grand reopening of our Darbe Mehr on June 26 (details have also been communicated by email about this exciting event). As we continue to work through the various considerations in bringing our ZAC community back together in-person, we remain in constant gratitude to our priests, religion school teachers, and other volunteers who remain devoted to their great service to our community.
With all this renewed anticipation of a return to normalcy, we also wanted to take this opportunity to remind our members to renew your ZAC membership online.
Stay tuned for more information from our ZAC Board as we cautiously chart the course for a safe return to increased in-person operations and events at ZAC.
Hamāzor Hamā Ashō-bēd! May we all be united in strength and righteousness!
Atha Jamyad Yatha Afrinami! May we achieve what we have prayed for.
