Letter of 3 May 1954

European and Asian Committee

|
Your letter of the 9th of Nur, 110, was received by the
beloved Guardian.
|
As he has been tremendously busy during this Holy Year—and indeed his work is increasing all the time—and there was
nothing urgent that required an immediate reply—he has
delayed in answering you until he had more time.
|
He hopes that your committee will be able to gradually assist
in the work allotted to the British National Spiritual Assembly
during the Plan.
|
The most important thing of course is to get the believers out
into wholly virgin areas, and keep them there. So far, England
has done nobly, and he is proud of their efforts.
|
The Pacific area is also of great importance. If there is any
possibility of British subjects going out to territories that are
under the jurisdiction of other National Bodies, but difficult to
get into, he feels that they should be referred to the committees
concerned, or the National Spiritual Assemblies concerned,
because of the importance of achieving all the goals of the Plan,
regardless of which Assembly has certain goals under its
immediate jurisdiction.
|
He assures you he will pray for the success of your devoted
labours, in the Holy Shrine.
|
|
May the Almighty bless your meritorious activities, guide and
sustain you always, and enable you to lend a great impetus to the
splendid work now being accomplished in Europe and in Asia.
|
Your true brother,
Shoghi
