Baha’is Observe
100th Anniversary
The Baha’is of Kodiak and
friends will observe the 100th anni
versary of the declaration of
Baha’u’llah, prophet-founder of the
Baha’i Faith, at a special meeting
to be held on Saturday, April 27, at
8 p.m. at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
George Putney, 1499 Hemlock
(Aleutian Homes).
This wil be one of a series of
meetings of Baha’is in every part
of the world commemorating this
singular event in the history of the
Baha’i Fatih. It was just 100 year
ago in Baghdad, Iraq, that
Baha’u’llah publicly announced to
his followers that He was the Mes
senger of God foretold in the Hoiy
Books of all of the world’s major
religions. This was the actual be
ginning of the Baha’i World Faith
which has now spread to 256 coun
tries, islands and dependencies of
the world, with several million fol
lowers located in over 11,000 cen
ters.
Over 6,000 Baha’is from every
part of the world will gather in
London April 28-May 2 to partici
pate in the world observance of
Baha’u’llah’s public declaration—
Eskimos from the Arctic, Indians
from North and South America,
Pygmy tribesmen from the Congo,
former “untouchables” from India,
aborigines from Australia, Viet
r
Namese, Filipinos, Chinese, Japa
nese and Europeans.
in an age when thinking is large
ly dominated by the somber threat
of nuclear destruction, the Baha’i
World Congress in London strike*
a hopeful, reassuring note, tor it
will symbolize in fact and demon
strate in devotion the essential one
ness of mankind, the universaltiy
of God and the fundamental one
ness of religion.
The new world envisaged by
Baha’i is already clearly blue
printed. Its basic principles will
be logical and in harmony with the
needs of the atomic-space age and
will include the harmonization of
religion and science, equal status
for men and women, abolition of
the extremes of wealth and pov
erty and the adoption of an aux
iliary world language.
Baha’is believe that in this age
the time has come to break down
the cultural and geographic bar
riers which have for so long divided
the peoples of the earth. This is
the moment in history, they say,
when the force of circumstances
will bring mankind together in one
human family. The Baha’is hope to
demonstrate the reality of this

You are cordially invited to join the Baha’is in commemo
rating the public declaration of Baha’u’llah, Founder of the

was the return of the Christ-Spirit and the Lord of Hosts.
His coming fulfilled the Messianic hopes in the scriptures of
Hindu, Zoroastrian and Buddhist, as well as Moslem, Christian
and Jew.
He was the Messenger of God Who would teach all men to
live in peace.
