History of the Faith in Worcester

Many Baha'is have lived in our cluster throughout the years.  Some of them have had international, national, regional or local impact in the development of the faith.  Remarkable people like Florence Morton, the Struven Family, and Amelia Collins have honored our cluster at some time in their lives.

Howard Christmas Struven (1882—1977)

The Baltimore years

On Christmas day, 1882 in Baltimore, MD, Rosa and Dietrich Struven, immigrants from Bremen, Germany, were blessed with the birth of their youngest son, Howard Christmas.  Little did they know of the impact that this young boy, and his brother, were to have on the advancement of the Revelation of Bahá'u'lláh in this country and the world, and specially, in the city of Worcester   (1, 2).
