Curtis Kelsey was a simple man who never went to college and never gained worldly fame. But in 1921, at the age of 27, he was asked by 'Abdu'l-Baha to come and work in Haifa to install the first electric lighting in the Shrine of the Bab. For two months he lived and worked as a member of 'Abdu'l-Baha's household, an experience that transformed him.
