Welcome!

This site seeks to provide information about the Bahá'í religion and, simultaneously, to reflect the collective personality of the Bahá'í community of Lincoln, Nebraska.   

The Bahá'í teachings praise the beauty of diversity throughout all creation and, at the same time, speak of the need for unity of mankind -- a unity which embraces and celebrates that diversity. 

With this in mind, the content of this website has been contributed by many individuals within the Lincoln Bahá'í community and reflects their respective interpretations of the Bahá'í teachings.

We hope you enjoy it.

“So powerful is the light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth.” - Baha'u'llah
