Election of the South Central Regional Bahá’í Council

Election of the South Central Regional Bahá’í Council

The National Spiritual Assembly’s announcement on this Day of the Covenant (November 26, 2022) lists the members of the South Central Regional Bahá’í Council for the coming year.  

Local Spiritual Assemblies are elected yearly in April on the first day of Ridván. Later in the year, during the month of October, the members of the Local Spiritual Assemblies in each region cast their ballots for the election of their Regional Bahá’í Council. In the United States, for several years, there have been twelve Regional Bahá’í Councils. This year (2022 to 2023), a thirteenth council was elected for the first time covering the state of Florida. 

The National Spiritual Assembly oversees these elections, and the members of the Regional Bahá’í Councils for the ensuing year are announced by the National Spiritual Assembly on the Day of the Covenant.
