Caption Roses freshly cut from the gardens at the Bahá'í House of Worship in Wilmette, Illinois, representing symbolically the 189 red roses presented to the Bahá'ís of the United States at that country's National Convention last April, graced the table at a celebration October 19 in Reykjavik, Iceland, of the anniversary of the Birth of the Báb. The roses were brought by Arlene Jennrich (seated at left) and her husband, Ken, of Wilmette who were on the first leg of a month-long teaching trip to Europe via Iceland. Pictured with Mrs. Jennrich are the hostess, Elsa Jonsson (center), and Liesel Becker, a long-time pioneer to Iceland from Germany. One pioneer, after pressing her face close to the roses, looked up tearfully and said, 'Oh, my dear, thank you! This is as close as I may ever get to the House of Worship.' (Photo by Ken Jennrich)
