‘Abdu’l-Bahá with a group of Bahá’ís at
Lincoln Park in Chicago, Illinois, 3 May 1912 |
On April 24, 1912, it was the privilege of the Baha'i
children of Washington to have' Abdu'l-Baha at their meeting. He gave them the
most helpful message, sweetened their little mouths with candy and blessed them
with these words: "Praise be to God! These children are like a bouquet of
roses in their utmost beauty, delicacy and sweetness." (Reported by Dr.
Zia Bagdadi, ‘Abdu’l-Baha in America’, April 24, 1912, Washington DC, Star of
the West, vol. 19, no. 2, May 1928)
