LETTER OF 4 OCTOBER 1952

4 October 1952

Dear Baha'i Friend:

The beloved Guardian is very anxious to secure the date on which your National a.s.sembly was incorporated.

He also wishes information as to the present value of the National Hazira in Frankfurt.

Will you please send this information to him by return Air Mail, as he wishes it promptly, so that a new statistical book concerning the Faith may be issued promptly.

I am pleased to advise you that the health of the Guardian is good.

Likewise of course you will be interested to know that the work on the drum of the beautiful Shrine of the Bab is progressing nicely. The columns between the lancet windows are rising higher with each pa.s.sing day. The beauty of this Gem on Mount Carmel is attracting widespread interest, not only on the part of the Baha'is, but of the public of the State of Israel as well....

11 October 1952 (Summer School)

Dear Baha'i Friends:

Your letter addressed to the beloved Guardian and signed by all the friends, has been received, and I have been instructed to answer you on his behalf. He was most happy to see that such a large number of the believers were present to gain renewed zeal and inspiration from this important Baha'i inst.i.tution.

As he has already informed the friends there, great work lies ahead for Germany in the next ten years, and it is of the utmost importance that all the Baha'is prepare themselves for that work now....

[From the Guardian:]

May the Almighty abundantly bless your high endeavours, guide your steps, remove every obstacle in your path, and a.s.sist you to lend a tremendous impetus to the progress of our beloved Faith,

Your true and grateful brother, Shoghi

Dear Baha'i Friends:

The beloved Guardian is very anxious to conclude the preparation of the new statistical book to be issued during the Holy Year, concerning the status of the Faith over the world.

We still do not have the list of a.s.semblies, Groups and Isolated Believers in Germany and Austria.

Can you send by return air mail a list of the a.s.semblies, Groups and Isolated Believers in Germany, and also another list giving the same information for Austria? In other words, a separate list should be sent for each country....
