Meet the Seattle Baháʼí Community
The Bahá'í Faith has been an active part of the Seattle community for over a century. Bahá'ís believe that a just and peaceful global society is not only possible - it is inevitable. As such, Bahá'ís in Seattle and around the world strive to give expression to the oneness of humanity, a core principle of their faith, by seeking to eliminate racial prejudice, advance the equality of women and men, and build a vibrant spiritual community reflecting the human family in all its diversity.
Baháʼís around the U.S.
In neighborhoods across the country, Baha’is and their friends are engaged in a community building process that cultivates love and translates it into action.
It’s no secret that America is going through a tumultuous time. Tensions and divisions surface every day, reminding us that the stains of injustice and racial prejudice are set deeply in the fabric of our society. Baha’is are committed to reshaping society around principles of oneness – such as love, inclusivity and reciprocity. We hope to join hands with the countless like-minded Americans working for these same goals, and invite everyone to take a look at our approach.
