Members of the National Spiritual Assembly of the Baha'is of Australia, together with their counterparts from some 170 other countries, have elected the governing body of the Baha'i Faith.

Members of the governing council of the Australian Baha'i Community will participate in a unique international election  tomorrow.

They will join their counterparts from some 170 countries to vote for the international governing body of the Baha'i Faith. 

A young Baha'i was among the official participants at a Commonwealth Day multi-faith service held in Canberra.

Scarlett Feltham, 12, was the youngest by far of the 13 people who read a prayer at the service.
