Indianapolis Bahá'í Community

Some Indianapolis Baha'is (circa 2000)

The Indianapolis Bahá'í community is composed of people from different races, nationalities, backgrounds, ages, and social classes. What we all share in common is our belief in Bahá'u'lláh, and His Teachings for a united and spiritualized world. We welcome the opportunity to have fellowship with souls from other Faiths, or no Faith. Whether or not you become a Bahá'í, we invite you to work with us to help build a more peaceful, spiritual, and unified world.

The Indianapolis Bahá'í Community is just one of thousands of communities worldwide whose members seek to follow and implement the message of Bahá'u'lláh. We are active in serving humanity through local activities such as home visits, devotional meetings, firesides, children's classes, junior youth spiritual empowerment groups, and social action.

Indianapolis Local Spiritual Assembly

Activities are organized and guided by the Local Spiritual Assembly, which is a 9-person consultative body elected by the community each April. The Indianapolis Bahá'í Assembly was first elected in 1932, and was incorporated in 1941.
