National Youth Committee
Dear Baha'i Sister,
Your letter of September 19th was received, and our beloved Guardian has instructed me to answer it on his behalf, and to congratulate you and the other members of your committee on the excellent first issue of your Baha'i Youth Bulletin.
This is an important new undertaking, and must be established as a firm innovation on the part of the British Baha'i community. He hopes it will gradually become the means of interesting and attracting many new souls to the Faith.
In fact the Youth work everywhere in the Baha'i World is dear to his heart, and he attaches great importance to it. The young people, who will inevitably grow up to shoulder all the work of the Cause, are really its hope, and should be one of the most active factors in its propagation.
Through their courageous adherence to the high moral and ethical standards set out by Baha'u'llah, and through gaining a mastery of His many, diversified, and profound teachings, they can shape, to a great extent, the development and aid in the rapid expansion of their beloved Faith in the various countries in which they labour. They should be made to realise their responsibility is heavy and their privilege very precious.
He wishes to a.s.sure you and all the other members of the National Youth Committee, of his most loving prayers for your progress, and for the success of the work you have so enthusiastically and devotedly undertaken....
[From the Guardian:]
May the Beloved bless abundantly the work which your Committee has so n.o.bly initiated, remove all obstacles from your path, aid you to realise every hope you cherish, and carry out every plan you conceive, for the furtherance of the interests of our beloved Faith and of its G.o.d-given inst.i.tutions.
Your true brother, Shoghi
