![]() April 5, 2016 To the American Bahá’í communityDear Bahá’í Friends, The National Spiritual Assembly wishes to remind the friends that this year the First Day of Ridván will occur on April 20, falling between sunset on April 19 and sunset on April 20. Elections of the Local Spiritual Assembly and group formations should occur during these hours. All forms and supporting documents for Assembly formation and group registration are available through eMembership2 (https://emem.usbnc.org) and at www.elections.bahai.us. We also take this opportunity to bring to your attention the addition of a link—on the landing page of our member services website (www.american.bahai.us)—to the Bahá’í calendar of dates for the next 50 years. Titled Baháʹí Calendar for the Next 50 Years—Holy Days, Feast Days and the Month of Fasting, the link can be found immediately below the 2016 Fund goal graphic on the right side of the home page. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all as we gather during this Most Great Festival in remembrance and praise of our Beloved. With loving Bahá’í greetings, ![]() Kenneth E. Bowers Secretary |
