BICENTENARY CELEBRATION OF THE 200th BIRTHDAY OF THE BAB AT RIO VISTA IN PEORIA

 The Bab ("bahb") was the forerunner to the Baha'i Faith. He was born in Iran in 1819. He proclaimed His mission in 1844 and was martyred in 1850. The Báb’s mission was to prepare humanity for the coming of an age of transformation beyond anything the generation that heard Him would be able to understand. Their duty was to purify their hearts so that they could recognize the One for Whom the whole world was waiting and serve the establishment of the Kingdom of God. He announced the imminent advent of  “Him whom God shall make manifest,” who would fulfill the prophecies of past religions and usher in a new global era of peace and unity. And that of course was Baha'u'llah.


Peoria celebrated the 200th birthday of the Bab (which means 'the Gate')
 at Rio Vista Recreational Center in Peoria, AZ on Sunday, October 27, 2019.
