[From the Guardian:]
My dear co-worker:
I am deeply touched by this further evidence of the love and devotion of the New-Zealand Bahá’ís and I will gladly forward their contribution of our friend to the Teheran Assembly to be sent by them to the sufferers in Jahrum. I will ardently pray for every one of you that the Beloved may guide your steps and lead you to glorious victory. I urge you to communicate regularly and frequently with the Bahá’í newsletter editor through Mr Horace Holley and report to him the progress of your activities. It is so essential and valuable.
Your true brother,
Shoghi

My dear Bahá’í Sister,
I take pleasure in thanking you on behalf of my dear Guardian for your letter of April 5th.
As a far away outpost of the Bahá’í Faith in New Zealand, he is always delighted to hear from Auckland and especially yourself and your promising Assembly there. You own a warm spot in his heart and he is looking forward to the day when through the efforts of the Auckland Assembly, centres will be established in every town in New Zealand. A firm faith and a golden heart is yours, there still remains to turn other hearts into gold.
