New Baha’i World News Service Section Dedicated to the Shrine of Abdu’l-Baha

January 17, 2020, in Articles > News, by

The Baha’i World News Service just launched a new section to their website dedicated to developments of the construction of the Shrine of Abdu’l-Baha. You’ll find that special section of their website here

The Universal House of Justice announced plans to begin constructing the Shrine of Abdu’l-Baha in its 2019 Ridvan message (you can read the message here, or listen to it here). The Universal House of Justice stated that the Shrine would be in the vicinity of the Ridvan Garden, between Haifa and Bahji, on land consecrated by the footsteps of Baha’u’llah. If you’re curious why the Shrines of the Bab and Baha’u’llah and many Baha’i holy places are located in Israel, you might wish to check out this Baha’i Blog article: Why Is the Baha’i World Centre in Israel?

For more information about the Shrine of Abdu’l-Baha, I recommend checking out other articles released by the Baha’i World News Service. These are the stories shared so far:

We do not know yet, but I’m sure there will be updates on the BWNS page relating to the Shrine of Abdu’l-Baha.
