The Guardian sincerely hopes and prays that the study of the
Dawn-Breakers will inspire the friends to greater activity and
more exerted energy in serving the Cause and spreading its
message in that town. The life of those heroes of the Faith should
teach us what true sacrifice is, and to what extent we should forego
our personal and worldly interests while endeavouring to carry
the divine message to the four corners of the earth.
Shoghi Effendi would advise the friends in Rostock to hold
regular study classes and read that book with great care, committing
its salient facts to memory, so that while teaching the Cause,
they may be able to show the motivating spirit of the Faith by
referring to some incidents of those early days.
