27 May 1957
Dear Bahá’í Brother:
The beloved Guardian has instructed me to write about the ... situation raised in one of your recent letters....
It is inconceivable and wholly inadmissible that any Bahá’ís in a community should be permitted to hold a Feast in their home and refuse admission to another believer; and your Assembly should write accordingly in very strong terms to the ... Assembly, pointing out that the Guardian is not only surprised to learn of this situation, but disapproves of it in the strongest terms.
Any Bahá’í may attend a Feast, a local Bahá’í, a Bahá’í from out of town, certainly an isolated Bahá’í from the neighbourhood.
