ew and flourishing communities, disseminate, energetically, and on a
far more extensive scale, the literature of the Faith in all the languages
which the execution of the Plan, at its present stage, demands,
collaborate more closely with the two National Assemblies and their
subsidiary agencies already functioning in that continent, initiate,
wisely and patiently, whatever measures may be required to further the
purposes of the Plan, and surmount, at whatever cost, every obstacle they
may encounter in their path.

As to those who, owing to circumstances beyond their control, are
unavoidably prevented from participating in this national and
inter-continental crusade, and are denied the privilege of struggling in
the forefront of battle, either at home or abroad, theirs is the no less
meritorious task, to aid by every means in their power, whether through
financial assistance, constant support and encouragement, the supply of
literature or the appointment of deputies, the little band of their heroic
brethren, who have assumed so preponderating a share of the
responsibilities now facing the entire community: all, without exception,
without reservation, without further delay, must participate. Each and

conclusion of the first stage of the Divine Plan, and enable its
prosecutors to launch, at the appointed time, the third and a still more
glorious stage in its evolution.

There is no time to lose. The task, though prodigious, is not beyond the
capacity of those, who, in so short a time, in such distant fields, over
so wide an area, and in the midst of a people so alien in temperament,
language and custom, have won such conspicuous victories for their beloved
Faith, and laid so enduring a foundation for its nascent institutions.

This gallant community is now summoned to undertake, further afield and in
circumstances admittedly more adverse and challenging, a task infinitely
more meritorious, and considerably richer in its potentialities. To fail,
at this critical juncture to rise to the height of the occasion, would
jeopardize the colossal work so painstakingly achieved in the course of
many long years, and irretrievably shatter the hopes for the e
