'Abdu'l-Baha traveled to America in 1912 to advise, counsel, instruct, inspire, unify, teach, and empower not only the early Baha'i community, but American society. Our community is one of the legacies of His visit.
I would like to include your experiences on this blog! I'd like to hear your voice not only in the comments, but in upcoming blog posts. What does it mean to you that 'Abdu'l-Baha visited our shores? What are some of the lessons that inspire you today? Are there any of His speeches that especially warm your heart or inspire your soul? Do you find that you relate in a special way to a particular early believer?
Please send me your thoughts and reflections to include in upcoming blog posts to anne99@rcn.com. You can write a few sentences about one of the questions above (or something else you think of), or you can even just send me a favorite quote that is meaningful to you. You can also remain anonymous or include your name, the choice is yours!
'Abdu'l-Baha's visit raised the capacity of the entire community, and His example and teachings had a direct impact on our lives. I would love to encourage people to talk about this, and share their thoughts with others. This invitation is open to all, not just readers who profess the Baha'i Faith, but anyone who has a few words they wish to share about this visit.
Can't wait to hear from you!
