Prophecy and Providence in the Bahá’í Vision

Please join us at the Alexandria Bahá’í Center for an evening of fellowship and deep exploration into the intersection of history and faith.
We will begin at 7:00 pm with refreshments, followed by a discussion with William P. Collins on "Prophecy and Providence in the Bahá’í Vision." @ 7:30 p.m. Together, we will explore insights from his latest book, Millennialism, Millerites, and Prophecy in Bahá'í Discourse, examining how these themes shape the Bahá’í perspective.

William P. Collins is a distinguished researcher and librarian who has held senior leadership roles at the U.S. Copyright Office, the Bahá’í International Library, and Middlebury College. A prolific author, he serves on the faculty of both the Wilmette Institute and the Corinne True Center for Bahá’í History.

In addition to his professional and academic work—including editorial roles for the Journal of Bahá’í Studies—Bill is deeply committed to community service. He is an active advocate for civil rights, affordable housing, and food security. He holds degrees from Middlebury College and Syracuse University, with international studies spanning Colombia, Wales, and Russia.
