Dear Friends,

These are two different videos and, since no thread should have an
end, a third is involved as well.

"Baha'u,llah, a Glimpse of His Life and Teachings," is a 28-minute
video in which viewers are presented with a glimpse of His life as
a prisoner and exile, and then with an introduction to the Baha'i
community. It is excerpted from . . .

"The Pilgrimage," a 120-minute video written and narrated by
Ruhiyyih Khanum, widow of Shoghi Effendi, Guardian of the Baha'i
Faith. Filmed at various sites in the Holy Land, the film takes
the viewer through the path of a pilgrimage, explaining the
historical and spiritual significance of 'Akka, Bahji, and other
sites. The video can serve as a pilgrimage experience for Baha'is and
an introduction to the Faith for others.

"Introduction to the Baha'u'llah" is a 27-minute video originally
prepared for TV broadcast in Canada. Written and narrated by
Douglas Martin, now a member of the Universal House of Justice, it
parallels the information in the statement on Baha'u'llah prepared by
the Office of Public Information.

All of these items are available from the Baha'i Distribution Service
(5397 Wilbanks Drive, Chattanooga, Tennessee 37343) or <bds@usbnc.org>
