A website catering to the English and Hawaiian-speaking communities has been launched. This platform allows individuals to access Baha’i prayers and writings in two languages, English and ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi. The creation of this unique website signifies a significant step towards fostering inclusivity, cultural diversity, and spiritual enrichment within the Baha’i community.

Baha’i Ideas recognizes the importance of embracing local cultures and empowering those who speak and appreciate the Hawaiian language. By offering Baha’i texts in Hawaiian, the website invites the Hawaiian community to connect with the Baha’i Faith on a deeper, more personal level. This significant initiative demonstrates the Baha’i community’s respect for Hawaiian spirituality and their commitment to shared understanding and cultural integration.
