I'm here, y'all! I've said fervent prayers for each of you at all the Shrines and you've been with me as I've gone through miraculous experiences here. I can't describe them, but you do the math:
25 new staff members in the December orientation group
12 different counties represented (they counted me as Guatemala)
9 members of The Universal House of Justice greeted all of us today
8 hours time difference from Haifa to Central Time Zone
10 hours difference from Haifa to San Diego
1 very excellent view (that's right, the Dome of the Shrine of the Bab and across the bay to Akka and Bahji)
0 jet lag
17 hours traveling from New Orleans to Chicago to Madrid to Barcelona to Tel Aviv
4 seats all to myself to stretch out and sleep on the transcontinental flight
8 a.m. dawnbreak?! in Madrid
2 very cool flat mates (and neighbors!)
30 minute walk to the Seat of the Universal House of Justice

What a great view! I'll never forget looking out of our hotel window at the Dan Panorama and seeing the dome of the Shrine of the Báb for the first time. It loomed so large in my vision it seemed to fill the sky.
I'm sure your training is going well. Have you had your private reception with the UHJ?
Farzam Sabetian left the Holy Land at the end of November. I guess they still don't know in Guatemala that you are there.
Your mother is hosting a memorial meeting for Maman Bozorg this Sunday at 10:30 am at the Baton Rouge Baha'i Unity Center. Some of my colleagues may come. Neda and Ruha will be there to help. Can you say prayers at the Shrine?
I love you,
Baba
