He feels it would be an excellent means of serving the Cause and enhancing the prestige of the British Baha'is if you can send a delegate to the Spiritual World Congress to be held in Brussels.
We are sending ... the Haifa News Letter direct from here; thank you for sending his address. The Guardian suggests if you have not already done so, that you send the address of the Dutch Baha'i to Mrs. Lynch, so that travelling believers can be put in touch with him.
He is eagerly awaiting more good news of the progress of your Six Year Plan, and a.s.sures you all that he will ardently pray for its speedy and complete success in the Holy Shrines.
Your a.s.sembly's labours are very deeply appreciated....
[From the Guardian:]
Dear and valued co-workers,
The enterprise launched by the English Baha'i community in the opening years of the second Baha'i Century is of tremendous significance, and will, if successful, mark not only the inception of a glorious chapter in the history of the Faith in the British Isles, but will const.i.tute a landmark in the spiritual awakening of its people. The forces which such a consummation will release none can estimate sufficiently at present. The task is colossal, but the reinforcing power of Baha'u'llah, who is watching over it and is ready to bless and sustain it if its prosecutors arise to play their part, is likewise immeasurable. The recent Teaching Conference is but the initial stage in this mighty, this collective, and indeed historic undertaking. The goal towns which have been selected should be regarded as the chief objectives requiring the immediate and concentrated attention of its zealous promoters. Every consideration should be subordinated to the paramount need of establis.h.i.+ng at any cost and by every means possible, vigorously functioning a.s.semblies at these centres. No effort should be wasted, all must arise to lend their a.s.sistance; no sacrifice is too great to ensure the completion of the first stage of this n.o.ble enterprise. Unity, perseverance, self-sacrifice, will guarantee its success. Obstacles may arise, set-backs will no doubt occur, but the unconquerable spirit animating the English believers must ultimately triumph.
Your true and grateful brother, Shoghi
