spread and triumph of His
Cause.

As I was the other day studying various Baha'i documents I came across a
most inspiring and encouraging message from our Beloved written in his own
handwriting and bearing no date and sign as to the place and circumstances
in which it was revealed. I enclose a copy of its translation together
with various Baha'i prayers and Tablets all of which I trust will be of
great help and assistance to you in your work of service to the Cause. I
submit them all to the members of the National Spiritual Assembly for
translation into German and circulation among the friends.

I have asked a very experienced Persian teacher, by the name of
Jinab-i-Avarih, who is at present in England, to pay a special visit to
the various Baha'i centres in Germany and endeavour with the hearty
cooperation of every one of you to arouse deep and widespread interest in
the Movement throughout that land.

I am eagerly anxious to receive a copy of your Baha'i organ which I trust
you will be able to publish both in German and in English and which I hope
will truly and fully describe the great effort which is now being made in
those regions for the diffusion of the Baha'i principles and teachings.
With the introduction of an English section into your Baha'i Magazine the
number of its subscribers will I am sure greatly increase as the many
friends in America, Great Britain, France, India and Egypt would be most
pleased and grateful to gather from its columns the full news of the
onward march of the Cause throughout Central Europe.

It would be a great encouragement to the friends in America and India if
the German friends would through their respective assemblies subscribe to
the two leading Baha'i organs in the world, namely the Star of the West
and the Baha'i News, and contribute regularly reports of their own
activities and submit for publication carefully written articles,
sanctioned by the members of the National Spiritual Assembly, and bearing
upon spiritual matters in general, that the East and the West may be
closely linked together and the friends the world over may know of one
anothers activities and services to the Cause.

The time is sure to come and the signs are already apparent, when the
various and distant members of this great world community will find their
activities co-ordinated, their purpose unified, their efforts re-inforced
and the effect of their combined efforts manifest throughout the world.
