Green Acre Bahá'í School,
in far southern Maine, is already a center of learning. But one day it will
be the Bahá'í center of learning in North
America, or so, prophetically, has 'Abdu'l-Bahá
said. Perhaps "exhortationally" is more accurate than "prophetically",
since his prophetic words are themselves a directive to the Bahá'ís.
And when you think about the number of colleges and universities that will need
to be built in coming years in order to meet the demand of an ever-growing population,
you realize it is not at all infeasible that there will, one day, be highly-respected
school here.
