Question.3113 - This is a religious studies class and when we study religion through the lens of sacred books it is important to experience and/or observe the text in practice. Each of the world's religion have a distinct style of worship, so the purpose of this assignment is to visit religious services to get a firsthand account of religion outside of the classroom . During this visit you will need to pay close attention to your surroundings, be able to explain what happened during the service and how it felt during your time there. If you get a sense of the sacred at this service, try to describe what it was like. This report should be two pages, double spaced. Pay particular attention to the use of sacred books and how they are used in worship and ritual.Visiting a Jewish Religious Service1.
