Letter of 19 July 1947

19 July 1947
The Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá’ís of Stuttgart
Dear Bahá’í Friends:
Your letter of March 10th was received, and as our beloved Guardian was very busy he could not reply to you sooner. However, he has now instructed me to answer you on his behalf.
He has no objection to the Stuttgart Bahá’ís arranging to have a center of their own on Mrs. Schwarz’ land. As this was a spot visited by the beloved Master, it is all the more appropriate as a center for the Cause there.
He hopes that the Stuttgart friends will so arrange their affairs that this new undertaking will not prevent them from assisting the national interests of the Cause and spending them their full support.
His loving prayers are offered for you all, and for the success of the work you are doing there, which is so sacred and so vitally important…
[From the Guardian:]
May the Almighty bless, guide and sustain you in your meritorious and constant services to His glorious Faith, aid you to extend the range of your activities, to proclaim the truths of His Faith, multiply its institutions, and consolidate its foundations,
Your true and grateful brother,
Shoghi
