BWNS: Papua New Guinea – Rising Temple Inspires Public Participation in Weaving Project

September 30, 2022, in Videos > News, by

This video from the Baha’i World News Service (BWNS) shares how, sitting on a hilltop in Port Moresby, the capital of Papua New Guinea (PNG), is the emerging Baha’i House of Worship—a sacred structure that represents the union of devotion and service to society. This central theme, which underlies the purpose of all Baha’i Houses of Worship, is inspiring residents in the area to assist with the development of the temple in that country, most recently with a weaving project.
