“It made sense to me that all the prophets were Messengers of Their time”

A teacher of youth shares her discovery of the Bahai Faith and what it has meant for her work and life goals. 
48 years ago I lived on a reservation as a part of my senior project. My roommate and I taught in the elementary school for 3 months.  Most of the teachers there were Bahai.  We prayed and learned about Bahaullah. I was fascinated and it made sense to me that all the prophets were Messengers of Their time. I loved that all the religions were connected. I have been interested in the Bahai faith for many years. But just this morning I found out about the school and convention center and that it was within a few miles of my cabin  . . .  I am currently a teacher  . . . for high-risk students. I am teaching life skills and working with students on values and how to make decisions that will affect their lives as well as others. I cannot believe the timing. The faith in Bahaullah and my life goals are so connected. I would love to come and take classes.
Thank you
 This new friend is now enrolled as a member of the Bahai Faith.
