About
Jump to
Leland Jensen (22 August 1914 – 6 August 1996) was the founder of a Bahá'í sect called the Bahá'ís Under the Provisions of the Covenant (BUPC). Jensen initially supported the claim of Mason Remey to be the successor to Shoghi Effendi in 1960, resulting in his excommunication from the mainstream Bahá'í community. Jensen further believed that he was chosen by God to re-establish the proper administration of the religion, and went on to propagate his own teachings among a group of followers that observers say probably never exceeded 200. but declined in size significantly from 1990-1996. During his lifetime adherents were mostly concentrated in Montana, with smaller groups in other states.
