Dear Spiritual Sister:

Shoghi Effendi wishes me to acknowledge the receipt
of your letter dated June 14th 1926, and also thank, through
you, the Auckland friends for their kind contribution.

He wishes me to assure you and them of his earnest
prayers. He hopes that through your constant endeavours the
Cause will progress rapidly in that city and make the spirit of
the movement permeate throughout the land. Though your
number is still comparatively small yet through divine guidance
and the Master's ever wakeful spirit you will soon add
many to your group and make of it a power for goodness
which will attract all attention.

With best wishes and kindest greetings I remain,

Yours ever sincerely,

My dear fellow-worker:

I am touched by this expression of the loyalty and devotion
of the Auckland Bahá'ís whose welfare, and spiritual
advancement are the object of my earnest and constant
prayer. I shall devote it to further the interests of the Cause in
ways that are dearest and nearest to my heart. I shall supplicate
the Almighty that strength and wisdom may be given you
to face and overcome the obstacles and trials that you will inevitably
encounter in future. The end is glorious if we only
persevere.
