Letter of 31 July 1956

|
The Beloved Guardian has directed me to write you in
connection with the Temple design for Germany, and the
activities in connection therewith.
|
1. The Guardian feels your Assembly should not
announce the selection at this time, to the Friends. You
should, quietly, review the matter carefully, and ascertain
273
what the cost of construction will be. It may be if the
expense is out of line with the amounts available, then some
other considerations will have to be given.
|
2. You should concentrate all your energies on the
securing of the Temple location. This is important, as the
Temple cannot of course be started, until the land is
purchased.
|
3. When you have the arrangements made for the land
purchase, and have the costs of the Temple construction, let
the Guardian know, and he will advise the next step.
|
4. The Guardian will announce the selection of the
Temple design to the Bahá’í World, after all these matters
are settled.
|
The Guardian hopes you will be able to expedite all these
matters, as he feels, as I have written previously, there is no
time to be lost, if the Temple is to be completed before the
close of the Ten Year Crusade.
|
The Guardian sends you his loving greetings….
