Shoghi Effendi called for the convocation of a series of Intercontinental Conferences to be held successively in Kampala, Uganda (Regional Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá'ís of Central and East Africa); Sydney, Australia (National Spiritual Assembly of the
Bahá'ís of Australia); Chicago, United States (National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá'ís of the United States of America,; Frankfurt, Germany (National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá'ís of Germany and: Austria); and Djakarta, Indonesia (Regional Spiritual Assembly of the Baha'is of South-East Asia). [BW13:311–12; MBW125]
The five-fold purpose of the International Conferences was:
- offering
humble thanksgiving to the
Divine Author of our Faith, Who has
graciously enabled His followers,
during a period of deepening anxiety
and amidst the confusion and
uncertainties of a critical phase in
the fortunes of mankind,
- to prosecute
uninterruptedly the Ten-Year
Plan formulated for the execution of
the Grand Design conceived by 'Abdu'l-Bahá,
- of reviewing and celebrating
the series of signal victories
won so rapidly in the course of each
of the campaigns of this world-encircling
Crusade,
- of deliberating on
ways and means that will insure its
triumphant consummation,
- and of
lending simultaneously a powerful
impetus, the world over, to the vital
process of individual conversion -the
preeminent purpose underlying
the Plan in all its ramifications -
and to the construction and completion
of the three Mother Temples
to be built in the European, the
African, and Australian continents. [CBN No 94 Nov 1957 p1]
