The National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá’ís of the Cook Islands is the national administrative body responsible for the Bahá’í community of the Cook Islands.

History[edit]

The Cook Islands were first assigned to the National Spiritual Assembly of South America in 1953.[1] The islands were reassigned to the National Spiritual Assembly of the Pacific Islands when it was formed in 1959.[2] The National Assembly of the Pacific Islands was split in 1964 and the Cook Islands were assigned to the National Spiritual Assembly of the Pacific Ocean.[3] In 1970, only Tonga and the Cook Islands remained in the National Assembly of the South Pacific Ocean, and the National Spiritual Assembly of Tonga and the Cook Islands was formed.[4]

In 1985 National Spiritual Assembly of the Cook Islands was established. [5]
