| Abstract | A Light That Never Fades: Shahdor Mahboubi shares her family’s remarkable journey of faith and perseverance -from pioneering in the remote, malaria-stricken town of Shahsavar in Iran, to answering the call of service in the small, rural community of Grand Forks, British Columbia. Through trials of prejudice, displacement, and financial hardship, her story illuminates the unyielding spirit of Bahá’í pioneers who, across generations and continents, find strength in sacrifice and build bridges of understanding in unfamiliar lands. The Long Way Home: Linda Wlasoff Wilkinson, a Bahá’í of Doukhobor descent, weaves a rich tapestry of memory and history, tracing the enduring friendship between Bahá’ís and Doukhobors in the West Kootenays. From early teaching efforts and shared spiritual quests to collaborative peace gatherings in Grand Forks, this narrative celebrates how two communities, both shaped by exile, faith, and a commitment to peace, have nurtured mutual respect, shared prayers, and worked side by side to foster unity in a diverse and often divided world. |
