In this last week, we're focusing on cultural traditions related to the gods/spirits.

Your question today: where do the followers worship their deities? Are there community gatherings, or is it more private? What locations belong to the gods?

Tell me what the followers value!

What do they hold up as the prime virtues? Honesty? Courage? Purity? Harmony with nature?

On the other hand, what do they consider the worst sins? What behaviors would they view as blasphemous or taboo?

While SOSi was already providing services to agencies like WA's Dept. of Labor & Industries and MA's Executive Office of Health and Human Services, the Sourcewell agreement means easier access to its 50,000+ member governments, nonprofits, and schools.

6/8
Screenshot of a LinkedIn post from SOSi (71,979 followers, posted 5 months ago, edited). Text reads: 'SOSi has partnered with Sourcewell, a state-created government service cooperative that helps public sector and nonprofit organizations streamline procurement through competitively solicited, pre-approved contracts. Sourcewell supports more than 50,000 participating government, education, and nonprofit agencies across the U.S. and Canada, enabling them to leverage collective buying power and significantly reduce the time and cost associated with traditional RFP processes.' (This sentence is highlighted in yellow.) 'As part of Sourcewell's rigorous national solicitation, SOSi ranked 4th out of 10 awarded companies, selected from 83 bidders nationwide, for this inaugural language services contract. Through this award, organizations in Sourcewell's network can procure scalable, secure language services through WordBridge®, SOSi's commercial language services platform, using a simplified master agreement that accelerates implementation and reduces procurement complexity. This partnership enables agencies to deploy on-demand language capabilities supported by proven technology, operational expertise, and deep public-sector experience — without issuing a separate solicitation.

If there is an organized religion, who are the leaders? Is there one high authority, like the Dalai Lama or the Pope? Who are the gods' representatives in ordinary communities?
