Abstract

Global crises such as pandemics, climate emergencies, and political upheavals have significantly impacted religious practices worldwide. This paper examines how religious communities adapt rituals to maintain spiritual resilience amid crises. Drawing on case studies from multiple faith traditions, the study explores how technology, communal networks, and reinterpretation of sacred texts contribute to continuity and transformation of rituals. The findings highlight the interplay between tradition and innovation, emphasizing the resilience of faith communities in times of uncertainty.
