41 Regional Conferences of the Five Year Plan

From Bahaipedia
(Redirected from 41 Regional Conferences)
Jump to:navigation, search
More than 3,200 Baha’is met in London for the Regional Conference taking place between 3–4 January 2009.

The 41 Regional Conferences of the Five Year Plan (or simply "41 conferences") were a series of conferences called for by the Universal House of Justice in its letter dated 20 October 2008. The series of conferences were to be held around the globe beginning on the 1st of November 2008 and ending on the 1st of March 2009. In total 41 conferences were to take place: 9 in Africa, 13 in the Americas, 6 in Europe, 10 in Asia and 3 in the Australasia region[1] with the total number of particpants close to eighty-thousand.

Most of the conferences were defined by unexpectedly high attendance, sacrifice of the participants in reaching the conference, and a re-dedication and commitment to the goals of the Five Year Plan by to be carried out by the participants upon returning home.
