DRBI is proud to host Dr. David Oughton for a series of 90-minute discussions on an Interfaith approach to The Promise of World Peace. Participants will learn what the religions of the world teach about how to achieve lasting peace and the necessary conditions for a new system of world law and order. Session 1 (July 28) discusses the Baha’i principles in “The Promise of World Peace”. Session 2 (Aug 4) looks at world peace through an Interfaith lens and Session 3 (Aug 11) concludes with the religious support for the World Democratic Federation.

ART AND SOUL
Eleanor Elizabeth Hadden, David Hadden’s mother, was a beloved Bahá’í who selflessly served the faith with her husband Lyall in Ghana, Zimbabwe (then Rhodesia) and the United States. Eleanor Hadden’s dedication to the Faith was an inspiration to many. She was particularly known for her way to keep isolated believers connected through her story-telling and written bulletins. In their early years, the Sears and the Haddens lived near to each other outside Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and this led to a lifetime bond between the families.
chools and her love for Jesus was quite deep. Marguerite’s education includes attendance at Stout College in Wisconsin, Marquette University, Duke University and Curry School of Speech in Boston. She also enjoyed watercolor art.
