Letter of 9 October 1947

9 October 1947
Assembly Development Committee Dear Bahá’í Friends,
Your letter to our beloved Guardian dated Aug. 4th, has been received and he has instructed me to answer it on his behalf. 205
He is very pleased to see the work your Committee is undertaking and feel that it is of the greatest importance. The unity, love, harmony and proper understanding of the administration of the Cause which exists in a community are the measure of its progress, and on them depend directly the expansion of the Faith.
He wishes you every success, and assures you of his prayers in support of your labours….
P.S. He has received your bi-monthly news letter and thinks it is very well written and excellent in every way.
[From the Guardian:]
May the Almighty bless continually your valued activities, aid you to overcome all obstacles in your path, promote effectively the vital interests of our beloved Faith, and contribute, in a notable manner, to the multiplication of its nascent institutions.
Your true and grateful brother,
Shoghi
