While work on a Bahá’í Encyclopedia continues, we offer a variety of articles on topics related to the Bahá’í Faith. The Bahá’í Encyclopedia Project is preparing a wide range of articles for eventual publication in the Bahá’í Encyclopedia. Meanwhile, we are delighted to make available an interim selection of entries. The collection will expand to include more articles from more subject categories.

Moments in History
Amoz Gibson, a member of the Universal House of Justice since its inception in 1963, died at the Bahá’í World Center in Haifa, Israel. Born to Bahá’í parents in Washington DC on 3 August 1918, he was of African American, Creek Indian, and Scots-Irish descent. Before his election to the Universal House of Justice, he taught intermediate and secondary school. For many years he and his family lived in Arizona and New Mexico, where he worked closely with members of the Navajo and Hopi tribes. He also served and traveled widely as a member of both arms of the Bahá’í administrative order. |
