Thames Valley Bahai Community has welcomed the fact that a global gathering has been held at the Bahá’í World Centre to discuss the future development of the worldwide Bahá’í community and its activities.
Senior officers of the Bahá’í Faith from 58 countries got together at Haifa, Israel on 4 January 2011 to focus on a message from the Universal House of Justice about recent community-building activities and their future evolution.
Among the developments highlighted was a rise in the capacity of about 350,000 Bahá’ís worldwide.
