	The Focus of this School is on the most essential themes that provide a foundation of study and action as a part of the Five Year Plan: Mission and Destiny of America--Sacred Responsibilities Individuals Living a Spiritual Life Making Real the Promises of our Faith Aligning our efforts with the Major Plan of God Our hope is to provide, through these materials, a combination of inspirational writings and a forum for the sharing of resources and experiences... so we may learn from each other as we strive together to put the Five Year Plan into action throughout the country. If ye will follow earnestly the teachings of Baha'u'llah, ye shall indeed become the light of the world, the soul for the body of the world, the comfort and help for humanity, and the source of salvation for the whole universe.
