Velma Little Eagle
We werre visiting Velma yesterday. She told a story of how she and her husband became Baha'is. Her husband, Charles Little Eagle, was a "Priest" (her words) of the NAC Church. He found the Faith first. He told her that,"this is what we have been looking for." She also said that from that point on, he did not use peyote ever again.Charles became a Baha'i about June 1984, during the Amos Gibson Project., and Velma in November 1986.
"Now is the time for obedience. In the words of the prayer, 'Instant, exact and complete obedience.' We must be like the great cypress trees standing outside the Shrine of Baha'u'llah. They bow and bend low before the breeze of God from whichever direction it may blow." William Sears, "Pilgrimage to Haifa," 1954.
