Welcome to the new Baha'i Faith forum!  The Baha'i Faith is the youngest of the world's global religions, which began in Persia in 1844, and to-date is second only to Christianity in the number of countries and territories where Baha'i communities can be found.  Our international center and holiest shrines are located upon Mount Carmel and at Akka in Israel.  Looking forward to your visits to our forum.
