He admires very much the devoted manner in which the Kolhapur Baha'is have
built up the Spiritual Assembly there and caused that community to be one
of the most active in Southern India. You must not now become discouraged
because some of your teachers have left and gone to serve the Cause
elsewhere. This gives you the opportunity of learning to do more of the
work yourselves, and of also putting your reliance on Baha'u'llah and
realizing that He will assist all those who arise to serve Him.
The Guardian assures you he will pray in the Holy Shrines for your
protection and that God may assist you in your work, aid you to be united
and show the greatest love, one for another, and bless your work.
[From the Guardian:]
May the Almighty guide every step you take in the path of service, and
enable you to proclaim the verities of His Faith, and contribute
effectively to the consolidation of its newly-born institutions.
