The last of the continental collections gathered from Shoghi Effendi’s ministry (1921–1957), Afire with the Vision: Messages from Shoghi Effendi to Latin America is a long-anticipated and significant publication.

The volume covers Shoghi Effendi’s direction given to the Latin American community throughout the course of the initial stages in the execution of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s Divine Plan for the worldwide propagation of the Bahá’í Faith.

Its contents have been carefully gathered over the course of several decades from official Bahá’í archives and the papers of individual believers throughout the hemisphere. Not only does this volume stand as a tribute to the tireless efforts of the many pioneers and first Latin American believers, it constitutes a further record of the inestimable role of Shoghi Effendi in advancing the vital interests of the Cause of God throughout the world.
