Letter of January 24, 1954
Haifa, Israel,
January 24, 1954
Mrs. Greta Lake, Secretary,
Yerrinbool Bahá’í School.
Dear Bahá’í Sister:
Your letter of January 3rd has been received by the beloved Guardian, and he has instructed me to answer you on his behalf. 117
He was very happy that the honored Hand of the Cause, Mr. Furutan, and Mr. Faizi, could be with you at this session of your Summer School, and he is sure they were the cause of great happiness and deep enkindlement to the friends present.
The Guardian has high hopes for the dear Australian and New Zealand believers, and he urges you, one and all, to persist in your labours, no matter at what cost, until all the goals set before you for the Ten Year Crusade, have been attained.
With warm Bahá’í greetings,
R. Rabbani.
[From the Guardian:]
May the Almighty bless you and your dear co-workers in your highly meritorious endeavours, and enable you to win great victories in the service of His glorious Faith.
Your true brother,
Shoghi.
