The continual aim of the institutions of the Bahá’í
community—whether it be through the operation of summer schools and training
institutes, through the development of the Nineteen Day Feasts and National
Conventions, or through day-to-day interaction among the friends—is to empower the
individual believers so that they will learn how to live their lives with
increasing knowledge, wisdom, unity and fruitfulness in conformity with the Teachings of Bahá’u’lláh.
