Again I earnestly appeal to every one of you, and renew my
only request with all the ardor of my conviction, to make, before
and during the coming Convention, yet another effort, this time
more spontaneous and selfless than before, and endeavor to approach
your task—the election of your delegates, as well as your national
and local representatives—with that purity of spirit that can alone
obtain our Beloved’s most cherished desire. Let us recall His
explicit and often-repeated assurances that every Assembly elected
in that rarefied atmosphere of selflessness and detachment is, in
truth, appointed of God, that its verdict is truly inspired, that one
and all should submit to its decision unreservedly and with cheerfulness.
