Summer School Committee

Dear Baha'i Sister:

Your letter of October 9 was received, and our beloved Guardian has
instructed me to answer you on his behalf.

He was very glad to hear the School was such a success this year, and
that--a very important factor--it placed no extra burden on the National
Fund at this critical juncture.

Next year your School will be held after the end of your Plan, he hopes
the victorious end! It would be suitable to hold some kind of review of
how the goals were won and to remember the many sacrifices that have been
made, for they have been very real and taxed to the uttermost the strength
of the servants of Baha'u'llah in the British Isles.

Also he feels it would be good to have some course on the Covenant, the
force that binds and strengthens the Baha'i community and holds it
together, when so many man-made institutions are disintegrating and going
on the rocks of discord and lack of faith.

Likewise, discussion of the future needs of the community should be held.
By next Summer you will know better what these are, and can formulate your
points to be taken up and considered.

He will pray that a suitable place may be found for the friends to gather.

Every year your school is more representative and successful than the year
before, and he feels sure this will continue to be so until that happy day
comes when Summer School develops at last into a seat of Baha'i
learning....

[From the Guardian:]

May the Almighty bless your meritorious efforts, guide and sustain you in
your activities, enable you to extend continually their range, and
contribute to the consolidation of the newly-born institutions of the
Faith.

Your true and grateful brother,
Shoghi
