articularly the staunch Baha'is in the British
Isles, will arise as one soul in many bodies, and surging ahead, cover the
face of the Earth with the Glory of the Lord.
The Guardian will pray fervently for the Baha'is of the British Isles for
the success of their efforts.
The Guardian will pray for the members of your Assembly, whose sacrificial
efforts he greatly values....
Letter of 8 June 1953
8 June 1953
Dear Baha'i Brother:
The beloved Guardian has asked me to write to you following my letter of
June 5th in connection with the great importance of settling one hundred
and thirty-one virgin areas, during the next few months.
Naturally it will be difficult for the Faith to be established in the new
territories or amongst the new tribes if they do not have at least a
pamphlet for distribution to the new contacts.
He therefore feels that along with the sending of pioneers into the virgin
areas, the translation of literature into the languages assigned to the
British National Assembly should take place. He has cabled you direct
concerning this very important matter, and has informed you in his cable
that he is arranging for a gift of 1,000 Pounds to assist you in this most
important work.
The Guardian feels that one of the existing pamphlets would be
satisfactory, or a new one, which you may feel it desirable to prepare. At
this time, it is not necessary to enter into the question of translation
of Baha'i books, simply a pamphlet, which can be used for teaching
purposes.
The Guardian wishes you to budget the necessary funds to cover this work
and to see that it is actively pursued, so that the literature will be
available at an early date.
He wishes you to send current reports of activities in connection with
this matter to the Secretary-General of the International Baha'i Council,
so that the data may be assembled with all the necessary information in
connection with the Ten Year Crusade, for the Guardian.
He sends his loving greetings to you.
