The Bahá'í Community of Adjala-Tosorontio
The world of humanity is like a garden and the various races are the flowers which constitute its adornment and decoration.
(‘Abdu'l-Baha, Baha'i World Faith - Abdu'l-Baha Section, p. 268)
Welcome to the Baha'i Community of Adjala-Tosorontio
Ideally situated at the border of the Greater Toronto Area and the southern end of one of Canada's greatest recreational areas, Adjala-Tosorontio strikes a wonderful balance of lifestyle and opportunity.
Forest and pasture, hill and valley join together to make for a beautiful co-existence with a natural flair. Beautiful scenery waits along quaint country roads, changing in character as the seasons progress.
Our Baha'i Community is quite small but very enthusiastic. We hope you join us, some time this year, for one of the many devotionals, firesides or Holy Days.
