The friends can gain much spiritual reinforcement by drawing on the inner strength of their fellow-Bahá’ís; and the Guardian hopes those who went to Esslingen this summer received this renewed power from mingling with other Bahá’ís; and returned to their homes more determined than ever to carry forward in the speediest and most efficient manner possible—the work of the World Spiritual Crusade.
He appreciates the prayers of the friends, and sends you all his loving greetings....
[From the Guardian:]
May the Spirit of Bahá’u’lláh sustain you in your splendid activities, aid you to acquire a fuller grasp of the fundamental and distinguishing features and teachings of our beloved Faith, and lend a great impetus to its onward march,
Your true brother,
Shoghi
