Dear Baha'i Friends:

Your loving letter of April 23rd was received by the Beloved Guardian, and
he has directed me to respond to it on his behalf. The contribution which
you have made to the International Fund is greatly appreciated. Receipt is
enclosed herein.

The spirit of the time is the teaching of the Faith in new areas,
particularly on the home front. The Guardian sincerely hopes you will be
most active in this field, so that many seeking the light of divine
guidance in your area, may be led to the Fountain of Immortality.

The Keynote of success in the teaching field is study of the Word, Prayer,
Meditation; and then action. Above all, perseverance in action. When these
steps are followed in the realm of self-sacrifice, success will be
achieved.

The Guardian assures you of his prayers in your behalf. He sends his
loving greetings.

Faithfully yours,
Leroy Ioas

Dear Baha'i Brother:

The beloved Guardian has received your letter of May 15th, and has
instructed me to answer you on his behalf.

The news you conveyed of the enrollment of Miss Campbell(9) was most
welcome. The Guardian is very proud to have these Indian Baha'is in the
Faith, and hopes that they will make every effort to carry the Message of
Baha'u'llah to their people, remembering always the promises of the
beloved Master of how great the Indians would become when the illumination
of this Revelation reached them.

The Guardian is happy to see that the Assembly there is functioning so
well and achieving so much in the teaching field. He will pray for you
all.

With warm Baha'i greetings,
R. Rabbani

[From the Guardian:]

May the Beloved bless you and your dear co-workers, guide and sustain you
always, and aid you to promote the vital interests of His Faith.

Your true brother,
Shoghi
