A Manual for Pioneers. Ruhiyyih Rabbani

Description

Pioneering—a phenomenon initially established by the Báb, Bahá’u’lláh and ‘Abdu’l-Bahá—was given a new dimension when the beloved Guardian announced the Ten Year Crusade in 1953, and pioneers opening certain new countries and islands were extolled by him as Knights of Bahá’u’lláh on the “Roll of Honour” By the time Amatu’l-Bahá began her travels, there were hundreds of pioneers of all ages who had left their native lands and settled in a variety of places: There were many occasions after Rúhíyyih Khánum’s international teaching travels when those who serve in the Holy Land had the opportunity to listen to her recounting thrilling stories about these travels in moving, inspiring and encouraging terms. While the practical advice offered in this book may not entirely be applicable to all friends everywhere, the tender love and affection of Amatu’l-Bahá are apparent.
