Regarding the Ma_sh_riqu'l-A_dh_kar, I would again most emphatically urge
the believers in America, and ask you to do the utmost you can to devise
every possible means for the removal of every outstanding financial
liability incurred in this connection. I would remind you of the supreme
and urgent necessity of raising the full sum decided upon by the National
Spiritual Assembly at its meeting in Chicago in order to meet the
immediate needs of this great future House of Worship. I would welcome a
full, authorized and up-to-date statement on its present situation, its
assets and liabilities and an estimate of the cost for its completion.
In conclusion I wish to renew the assurance of my ardent prayers for you
and for those whom you represent in safeguarding and promoting the sacred
interests of so precious a Cause. I am fully alive to the vastness and
delicacy of your task, I heartily appreciate your indefatigable efforts
and unflinching determination, I am continually reminded of our Master's
assurances of a dazzling future before you. May His love enfold you, His
Spirit guide you, and His power enable you to achieve signal victory.
Your brother in the Master's service,
SHOGHI.
