The Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá’ís of Oxford
|
|
Your letter of January 16th with enclosure has been received
by the beloved Guardian, and he has instructed me to answer
you on his behalf.
|
He thanks you very much for the expression of your
sympathy, and for the newspaper clipping you enclosed.
|
It has indeed been a great loss to the work of the Faith, to lose
such a valiant, constant and distinguished Hand as dear Dorothy
Baker. It will leave a gap in the pioneer field, as well. No doubt
her noble spirit will be able to assist and inspire from on high,
and this must be the consolation of all her friends and admirers.
|
He trusts the work in Oxford is progressing steadily; and he
assures you all of his loving prayers in your behalf.
|
With warmest Bahá’í greetings,
|
|
May the Almighty bless your meritorious efforts, guide and sustain
you in your activities, and enable you to win great victories in the
service of His Faith,
|
Your true brother,
Shoghi
