January 1975: Bahamas National Haziratu'l-Quds
Negotiations for the acquisition of a building which is
considered a landmark by Bahamian citizens were completed in Nassau at the end
of January [1975], during a visit by Glenford Mitchell, Secretary of the National
Spiritual Assembly of the Baha'is of the United States. The structure, built by
a former prime minister of the country, will serve as the National
Haziratu'l-Quds of the Bahamas. Ideally located in the heart of downtown
Nassau, the building is situated on a spacious lot which also includes a number
of smaller buildings. It is well-landscaped and attractive, with a covered
archway leading along the side of the building from the front to the back area.
The visit of Mr. Mitchell also provided an opportunity for extensive
proclamation of the Faith, with a half-hour program taped by Carl Bethel,
program director of the government-owned radio station, WZNS, and an hour-long
visit with Leon Turnquest, editor of the Nasseu Guardian.
