Coming Home – John Brogan’s Story of Architecture and Faith

May 15, 2026, in Videos > Short Film, by

The Australian Baha’i Community has released a short film called “Coming Home” about architect John Murray Brogan. John Murray Brogan shares memories of working alongside his father, John Richard Brogan, architect of the Baha’i House of Worship in Sydney, as well as his own personal journey toward the Baha’i Faith.

The Australian Baha’i Community has produced several other videos related to the Sydney Temple such as a documentary about the herculean task of building the Temple, the work to beautify, enhance and restore the House of Worship for the years ahead, and an animation on the significance of Baha’i Temples.
