Letter of 16 May 1953
16 May 1953
To the believers in Frankfurt.
Dear Bahá’í Friends:
The beloved Guardian greatly appreciated your Riḍván Greetings, which were sent on the post card showing the Hazíratu’l-Quds in Frankfurt.
This has been an especially wonderful Riḍván, marking as it does the ninetieth anniversary of the announcement of 111 Bahá’u’lláh, and also the launching of the great World Crusade in addition to the 100th anniversary of the Intimation of Bahá’u’lláh’s Prophetic Mission—in the Síyáh-Chál.
The Guardian speaks frequently of the German Bahá’ís, and of the great role they will have to play in the development of the Faith from now on. He will pray that divine confirmations may reach you at all times, and that your efforts will be guided and confirmed.
