Celebration of 60th Year of State of Israel

The Baha’i Holy place – the Shrine of the Bab – on Mount Carmel in Haifa was used in a respectful manner as Israelis observed the 60th year of the State of Israel this week. Blue light beams swept over Mount Carmel, and as one Baha’i observer noted, appeared to be as sentinels behind the Shrine. Normal lighting of the Shrine was reduced during the occasion.
