Walking the Path

Dr. Michael Frederick Walker was born in Australia and moved to the United States to study for a Ph.D. in Mathematics. In the United States, he met the Baha'i Faith. Soon after graduating, he moved to South Africa as a pioneer for the Baha'i Faith. At his pioneering post, he served as a Coordinator on the Literature Committee, translating Baha'i Writings into South African languages. During that time, Dr. Walker, or "Mike Walker," as he was known to his friends, also served as the Recording Secretary of the National Spiritual Assembly of South Africa, an administrative body in the Baha'i Faith. Michael Walker passed on at his pioneering post in 2021 and is buried in South Africa as one of several pioneers whose many efforts played a crucial role in establishing the Baha'i Faith in that country. This book is written by a friend who met him on his arrival in South Africa in 1969s.
