Joyful Announcement of Progress
| |
1 |
Joyfully announce to the Bahá'í world the rapid progress of the
final stages of the construction of the Báb's mausoleum on Mt. Carmel,
as well as the splendid initiative of the Bahá'ís of Panama aiming
at the acquisition of the site of the first Mashriqu'l-Adhkár of
Central America. Erection of the lantern and the placing of the ribs
of the dome completed. Five thousand gilded tiles dispatched from
Utrecht have been safely received, half of which have been already
placed in position, disclosing a glimpse of the shining splendor of the
completed dome.

Appeal to national assemblies, East and West, to participate
through contributions, in the meritorious endeavors exerted toward
the eventual establishment of a Bahá'í House of Worship in the City
of Panama, specifically mentioned by `Abdu'l-Bahá, situated in the
heart of the Western Hemisphere. Myself contributed five hundred
pounds for the furtherance of this notable objective of the Ten Year
Global Crusade.
