  • 1 Impressions from the Rock of Gibraltar
    IMPRESSIONS FROM THE ROCK OF GIBRALTAR: THE JOURNAL OF A TRAVELLING TEACHER (AUGUST 29-DECEMBER 3, 2009) J.A. McLean 2010 Good to Go: August 20, 2009 Within only nine days left before departure, things have fallen into place for Gibraltar. Janet Waterfield, a kind friend of English Bahá’í, Ann Dymond, informed me by telephone that she has a flat available to rent at 503 Neptune House, Marina Bay. The good news is that the flat is available for the whole three months duration of my stay. Janet recently made the acquaintance of senior believer, Ann, who was the first Bahá’í who came to Gibraltar in Holy Year 1992, the centenary of Bahá’u’lláh’s ascension. I have never been to that small, densely populated (7 square kilometres) overseas territory of Great Britain, but I understand that Marina Bay is a fine, central location. Sam Benoit, a recent university graduate and son of old friends, Wendy James and Bernard Benoit, is going to sublet my furnished apartment. This will be a great help since I won’t have to carry two rents at the same time Any pioneer or travel-teacher should not forget that serving the Faith, although it brings confirmations and rewards, can also bring tests and difficulties. They are a built-in component of service. I suppose that if Bahá’u’lláh did not find that His believers had the capacity for spiritual growth and service, He would not put us to the test at all. But as ‘Abdu’l-Bahá has written, these tests prove to be either stumbling-blocks or stepping-stones, just as we make them.
