Notes
Contestant Bevin Powers on the television show, "The Bachelor" mentioned growing up in the Bahai faith, and the comment created a surge of interest in the religion. Wilmette's Bahai House of Worship is the faith's only U.S. place of worship, and the Bahai National Center is located in Evanston.
