Notes

The Bahá’í Faith has been in Cincinnati since 1898. We are one of the ten oldest Bahá’í communities in the United States. Àbdu’l-Bahá the son of Bahá’u’llah (the founder of the Bahá’í Faith) actually visited Cincinnati in 1912. We have had an incorporated Local Spiritual Assembly (the elected group which guides the faith) in Cincinnati since 1932.

My husband and I strive to be informed and welcoming citizen diplomats and have been very impressed with the community involvement that the World Affairs Council offers to ensure and foster the knowledge, exposure and opportunity to do so in our local schools, business communities and public at large. My children delight in the exposure to different cultures, ways of thinking and languages. I like knowing that as an organization, we’re making a meaningful impact at home and abroad.”
