Description
The last of the continental collections gathered from Shoghi Effendi's ministry (1921–1957), Afire with the Vision: Messages from Shoghi Effendi to Latin America is a long-anticipated and significant publication. The volume covers Shoghi Effendi's direction given to the Latin American community throughout the course of the initial stages in the execution of 'Abdu'l-Bahá's Divine Plan for the worldwide propagation of the Bahá'à Faith. Its contents have been carefully gathered over the course of several decades from official Bahá'à archives and the papers of individual believers throughout the hemisphere. Not only does this volume stand as a tribute to the tireless efforts of the many pioneers and first Latin American believers, it constitutes a further record of the inestimable role of Shoghi Effendi in advancing the vital interests of the Cause of God throughout the world.
AUTHOR BIO
Shoghi Effendi (1897_–1957), great-grandson of Bahá'u'lláh (the Founder of the Bahá'à Faith), was educated at the American University of Beirut and Balliol College, Oxford. Among the many achievements of his ministry as the Guardian of the Bahá'à Faith are the development of the world spiritual and administrative center of the Faith in Haifa, Israel; the establishment of the administrative order of the Faith; the elaboration of many aspects of the Faith's history and teachings through his writings; the translation of many passages from the writings of Bahá'u'lláh into English; and the planning for the growth of the Faith on a world-encompassing scale.
