Letter of 4 July 1947
4 July 1947
Bahá’í Gemeinde, Karlsruhe
Dear Bahá’í Friends:
Your letter dated May 23rd was received by our beloved Guardian, and he wishes me to tell you all how very happy he was to hear that you now have a Spiritual Assembly there. This is the beginning of your work—not the end of it!—and you may be sure his ardent and loving prayers will be offered for your success, and expansion, in the Holy Shrines.
He also takes this opportunity of thanking Mrs. Brauns-Forel for her letter and assures her of his prayers…
[From the Guardian:]
Assuring you of my loving prayers for your success, for the extension o f your valued activities, and the realization of your dearest hopes in the service of the Faith and its divinely appointed institutions,
Your true brother,
Shoghi
