Baha'is of Gainesville, Florida

Baha'is of Gainesville, Florida We are the Bahá’ís of Gainesville, Florida. Bahá’ís are followers of Bahá’u’lláh, Who we believe is the Promised One of all Ages.

We invite everyone, regardless of race, religion or ethnicity, to study, worship and work with the Baha'is of Gainesville, Florida and around the world to bring into reality the vision of humanity as one global family and the earth as one home. We strive to live our lives according to the principles of the Baha'i Faith, a world religion whose purpose is to unite all the races and peoples in one un

iversal Cause and one common Faith. The traditions of almost every people include the promise of a future when peace and harmony will be established on earth and humankind will live in prosperity. We believe that the promised hour has come and that Bahá’u’lláh is the great Personage Whose Teachings will enable humanity to build a new world. In one of His Writings, Bahá’u’lláh says:

“That which the Lord hath ordained as the sovereign remedy and mightiest instrument for the healing of all the world is the union of all its peoples in one universal Cause, one common Faith.”

The Baha'i Faith is based on the teachings of Baha'u'llah, the most recent in a line of Messengers of God, who taught that there is only one God and one human family, and that all religions represent progressive stages in the revelation of God's Will. Our local community life centers around four main activities: study circles, devotional gatherings, children's classes, and junior youth empowerment programs. We invite everyone, regardless of race, religion or ethnicity, to study, worship and work with us to bring into reality the vision of humanity as one global family and the earth as one home.

The Baha'i view is that racial prejudice, while baneful and pernicious, is but one "symptom and side effect of the basic disease—disunity." True unity, founded on the "Oneness of Humanity," expressed in varied and diverse ways within the framework of action is the only long-term cure to this ill. Each individual must investigate this truth and how to embody its reality. Share your activities, stories and resources — and help inspire others to take action! ❤️🙏🤜🤛
