Letter of 6 December 19561

6 December 1956
He very deeply appreciates the loving sentiments you expressed to him on the occasion of the thirty-fifth anniversary of his Guardianship. The devotion of the Bahá’ís, and the fidelity they have shown to the Master’s wishes, and the love they have showered upon him, have enabled the Guardian to carry out the work he has accomplished.
He hopes that the older German Bahá’ís like yourself will do all you can to deepen the younger generation in the verities of the Faith, and create in them the same flame of devotion which has animated you all over so long a period….
[From the Guardian:]
Assuring you of my deep and abiding appreciation of the sentiments you have expressed, as well as of your highly meritorious services to the Cause of God—services which have greatly sustained and encouraged me amidst my strenuous labours in His service,
Your true brother,
Shoghi
