Letter of 20 December 1956

20 December 1956

To individual believers

Dear Bahá’í Friends:
The beloved Guardian was pleased to see the work is going well in the new territories, and particularly to see the post mark “Saint Pierre & Miquelon” on your post card of October 22nd.
He is happy to know that Mrs. Pawlowska1 is continuing her valuable pioneer service there, to which he attaches great importance.
He assures you both of his loving prayers for the success of your devoted labours.

With warm Bahá’í greetings,

R. Rabbani

[From the Guardian:]

May the Beloved, Whose Cause you promote with such splendid devotion, constancy and vigilance, reward you for your past achievements, and enable you to enrich the record of your meritorious services to His Faith,

Your true brother,

Shoghi
