“He wishes you particularly to impress the believers with
the necessity of maintaining the flow of their contributions to
the Temple, and also to stress the importance of the Institution
of the National Bahá’í Fund which, in these early days of the
administrative development of the Faith, is the indispensable
medium for the growth and expansion of the Movement. Contributions
to this fund constitute, in addition, a practical and
effective way whereby every believer can test the measure and
character of his Faith, and to prove in deeds the intensity of
his devotion and attachment to the Cause.”
