Meeting Marco
I was very happy to meet Marco Oliveira and his wife at our National Baha’i Centre in London last Wednesday (4th October). It’s always a pleasure to meet a fellow Baha’i, but particularly so in Marco’s case, since he is a fellow blogger and we have corresponded by email blog comments for some time.
Marco was kind enough to give me a copy of a wonderful book with substantial chapters on each of the six major religions in Portugal, including the Baha’i Faith. Representatives of each of the faiths concerned wrote the chapters on their own faith, thus ensuring accuracy of information. The book, which is sponsored by the Portuguese government, is a beautifully produced hardcover volume, very dignified.
What a wonderful initiative by the Portuguese government - I don’t know of anything similar sponsored by any other government in the world. Of course, you may know differently…

I am so jealous, I too want to meet the famous marco. Barney, do you have a picture to share?
Marco’s wife took a picture of both of us. Marco will email it to me when he returns to Portugal.
Famous? Me?
In the world of Baha’i bloggers you are famous man, Marco!
