Pilgrimage

My First Pilgrimage

This event for being a Bahá’í is one of the precious gifts that bound to us by the Blessed Beauty. Pilgrimage is a sign of devotion and love for God, this is the journey of the soul that connect to our creator and the main purpose of this sacred experience is pray and meditate at the Holy Shrines of the Central figure of the faith, Baha’u’llah, the Báb and Abdu’l-Bahá and to visits the Baha’i Holy Places and some related to the history of the faith.

I’ve been here in the Most Sacred spot of earth, Israel for 4 years and eight months serving at the Baha’I World Center as a gardener in Mt. Carmel. I arrived on 07 July 2002, two days later I applied for pilgrimage during my orientation program, that’s the first thing I did on computer. And here it is, its time to experience this blessing to be on Pilgrimage. The Supreme Body of the Faith, The Universal House of Justice invited me on 12 of February 2007 to join the other pilgrims around the world for 9 days from 05-13 of March 2007.
