The Bahá’í House of Worship (temple) is dedicated to joining the worship of God with service to humanity. The structure is open to all people and it is the central edifice of an institution known as a Mashriqu’l-Adhkar or “Dawning Place of the Mention of God.” In the fullness of time, the House of Worship will be surrounded by other structures dedicated to serving the needs of the community: learning institutions, convention facilities and other humanitarian and social service agencies.
