Dear Friends and co-workers:
|
Shoghi Effendi was deeply moved by your beautiful message
dated November 27th, and he has directed me to convey to you on
his behalf the expression of his loving appreciation and gratitude
for the sentiments of love, devotion and loyalty which that
message expressed.
|
He was, indeed, so pleased to learn that you had gathered at the
home of our dearly-beloved sister and co-worker Miss Johanna
Hirsch, and that you had heard from her the story of her
pilgrimage to the Holy Land.
|
It is his hope that you may also one day have the privilege of
undertaking a similar journey and of visiting the Holy Shrines in
‘Akká and Haifa.

Shoghi Effendi is continually praying on behalf of each and
every one of you, and is entreating Bahá’u’lláh that He may continue
sending you His blessings and guidance, that as a result your
efforts for the promulgation of His message may be crowned with
success….
|
|
May the Beloved of our hearts guide and strengthen you, bless your
efforts, add to your numbers, remove every obstacle from your path,
and deepen your knowledge of the fundamentals of His Cause, and
the distinguishing features of His glorious Revelation.
|
Your true and grateful brother,
Shoghi
