"O loving Friends! Exert every effort to acquire the various branches of knowledge and true understanding" ‘Abdu’l-Bahá

O God! Educate these children. These children are the plants of Thine orchard, The flowers of Thy meadow, The roses of Thy garden. Let Thy rain fall upon them; Let the Sun of Reality shine upon them with Thy love. Let Thy breeze refresh them in order that they may be trained, grow, develop and appear in the utmost beauty. Thou art the Giver. Thou art the Compassionate. --Abdu'l-Baha

"Encourage the children from their earliest years to master every kind of learning, and make them eager to become skilled in every art ..." ‘Abdu’l-Bahá

The children of the Foster Bahá'í School (12/01)

"The education of children in the teachings of the Faith must be regarded as an essential obligation of every Bahá’í parent, every local and national community, and it must become a firmly established Bahá’í activity during the course of this Plan. It should include moral instruction by word and example ..."

"If one should, in the right way, teach and train the children, he will be performing a service than which none is greater at the Sacred Threshold." ‘Abdu’l-Bahá

(Princeton, NJ 12/01)

"The Sunday school for the children ... is indeed a blessed thing. You must certainly continue this organized activity without cessation, and attach importance to it ... If this activity is well organized, rest thou assured that it will yield great results. Firmness and steadfastness, however, are necessary, otherwise it will continue for some time, but later be gradually forgotten. Perseverance is an essential condition." ‘Abdu’l-Bahá

"Certainly, certainly neglect not the education of the children. Rear them to be possessed of spiritual qualities, and be assured of the gifts and favours of the Lord." ‘Abdu’l-Bahá
