Local Baha' is Attending Congress This week 10,000 Baha'is from every corner of the globe will meet in London at one of the biggest religious gatherings ever seen in the British capital. "The Baha'is of the world have been working toward this event for an entire century", said Mr. Colin Mainds. The London Congress in Royal Albert Hall marks the 100th an- niversary of the founding of the Baha'i Faith, the world's new- est, and in many respects, its most unusual religion. "Baha'is believe that all the great re- vealed religions are one'in es- sence', said Mr. Colin Mainds. Among the four million mem- bers resident in 260 countries and territories of the world are persons from every religious background and racial origin. Most of the national communi- ties will be represented' at London, some by huge contin- gents. Three hundred Canadians are expected to attend. The Congess comes at the end of a Ten Year Crusade inaugu- tated in 1953 to carry the teachings of the faith through- out the world. Like their fellow believers in every land, many Canadians have voluntarily given up their homes to settle in_far distant places. " Canadian believers, for ex- ample, have, established Baha'i centres in Central Africa, Fin- land, the Canadian Arctic, Southeast Asia, South America and Greenland. Their ranks in- clude teachers, farmers, house- wives, engineers, nurses and business men. The faith has no paid clergy or missionaries. east Asia, South America and Greenland.
