In this video, we join Naysan as he attends the inauguration of the Baha’i Temple of Papua New Guinea with fellow Baha’i Blog team members Jordan Raj, Collis and Fuad Ta’eed.
Naysan was raised in Papua New Guinea, along with his dear friends and Baha’i Blog co-founders Collis and Fuad Ta’eed. Together with Jordan, they had the privilege of attending the opening of the national Baha’i House of Worship in Port Moresby, where they were able to reunite with so many dear friends who came from across the country–many of whom had travelled for days on foot to be there.
Words cannot express how grateful Naysan, Collis, Fuad and Jordan felt to have had the opportunity to attend the inauguration of this special House of Worship, which we’re sure will serve as a beacon of light, spreading hope and unity across the land, for generations to come.
We’d like to thank the National Spiritual Assembly of the Baha’is of Papua New Guinea for some of the footage used in this film.
