The National Teaching Committee of the N.S.A. of the British Isles.

Dear friends and co-workers,

The Guardian has instructed me to convey to you his deep gratitude for
your welcome message of April 21st. He has been made truly happy by its
perusal and wishes me to express once more his genuine appreciation of the
remarkable work which your committee is accomplishing for the spread of
the Message throughout England. He wishes you full success in your
labours, and is praying to Baha'u'llah to guide and assist you in every
step you are taking for the dissemination of His Teachings and the
establishment of His Faith in your country.

His chief advice to you is perseverance without which, he strongly feels,
no success is attainable. The difficulties in your way are undoubtedly
manifold and not always easy to overcome. But provided you persevere, and
face with courage, full faith and confidence such obstacles you can be
sure of attaining the goal you have set yourselves to achieve.

Now is the beginning of your work. And as in the beginning of every task
you are bound to meet all sorts of difficulties. The more you strive to
overcome these, the greater will be your reward, and the nearer you will
get to that glorious success which, as repeatedly promised by Baha'u'llah,
must needs crown the efforts of all those who, whole-heartedly and with
pure detachment, strive to work for the spread and establishment of His
Cause.

With cordial greetings and every good wish....

[From the Guardian:]

With the renewed assurance of my loving and constant prayers for the
extension of your meritorious activities and services,

Your true brother,
Shoghi
