In this third episode of the Ambassador to Humanity podcast we hear first-hand remembrances from those who met Abdu’l-Baha during his historic visit to the West, and learn how their encounters with this unique spiritual leader shaped the rest of their lives.

To high and low alike, whether in large meeting halls or in private conversations, Abdu’l-Baha created an impression that transformed thousands of lives and significantly enhanced the size and prestige of Baha’u’llah’s Faith in the West.
