We are one
We believe it’s time for humanity to come together as one family, to create a world where everyone can thrive.
The spiritual teachings of the Bahá’í Faith inspire us to form deep and diverse relationships and build communities that nurture the well-being of all.
We all have a part to play in shaping a bright future.
“My first counsel is this: possess a pure, kindly, and radiant heart... ”
“The best beloved of all things in My sight is Justice...”
“So powerful is the light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth.”
