While Louis Gregory’s name is known to many in the Bahá’í community, the depth and breadth of his spiritual journey in the face of unrelenting racial prejudice may not be as familiar. A gifted speaker, a fearless travel teacher and pioneer, and a tireless member of numerous Bahá’í institutions, Mr. Gregory strove his entire life to proclaim the Bahá’í teaching of the oneness of humanity to all who would heed the call of Bahá’u’lláh.

In His famous description of Mr. Gregory, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá said, “He is like pure gold. That is why he is acceptable in every market, and is current in every country.” Shoghi Effendi wrote to Mr. Gregory, “You have attained spiritual heights that few indeed can claim to have scaled. You have displayed a spirit that few, if any, can equal.” And the Universal House of Justice has written of him, “The powerful example of the Hand of the Cause Louis Gregory is an invaluable source of inspiration and encouragement.”

It is hoped that this book will draw the reader closer to this illuminating figure whose love, steadfastness, and courage still serve as a shining example of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s exhortation to “live the life.”
