CONSOLIDATION OF NOBLY-WON VICTORIES

The magnificent victories achieved in the teaching field and the sphere of administrative activity by the American Bahá’í community crowned with glory the historic services rendered by the followers of Bahá’u’lláh throughout the West during the last fifty years of the first Bahá’í Century. I rejoice in the brilliant celebrations befittingly consummating the record of splendid achievements. Immediate attention should be focused in the course of the opening year of the Second Century on consolidation of the nobly-won victories through reinforcement of newly formed Assemblies, multiplication of groups and increase in number of Assemblies as well as corresponding effort through Latin America. Praying for continuous flow of Divine outpourings.
