ELECTION OF BAHÁ'Í COUNCILS

Announcement by the National Spiritual Assembly

Dear Bahá'í Friends

The Day of the Covenant, 26 November 2002, marks the new term of service for the Bahá'í Councils. The Councils have, once again, made great strides in their work, as is shown by the excellence of the meetings in each country of the UK between the Council, the Counsellor, representatives of the National Spiritual Assembly, and the Auxiliary Board members for the areas concerned. These ‘Institutional Meetings’ are an integral part of the administration of the Five Year Plan and are proving to be inspiring and fruitful. The National Assembly is greatly impressed by the rapid maturation and growing experience of these administrative institutions. The National Spiritual Assembly is delighted to share with the friends the new membership of the Bahá'í Councils in the United Kingdom:

With loving Bahá'í greetings,
National Spiritual Assembly
