Confirmation of Numbers
The numbers 9 and 19 are significant for us
When we were considering buying this farm, there were many things that were confirmations that we were directed to this property and offering this farm to help build unity in the community would be pleasing to God.
In the Baha'i Faith, there are a few numbers that have special significance: 9 and 19 among them. The number 9 is the number of perfection as it is highest digit which contains all other digits.
