O my dear children! Your letter was received. A degree of joy was attained
that is beyond words or writing that, praise be to God, the power of the
Kingdom of God hath trained such children who, from their early childhood,
eagerly wish to acquire Baha'i education that they may, from the period of
their childhood, engage in service to the world of humanity.
My highest wish and desire is that ye who are my children may be educated
according to the teachings of Baha'u'llah and may receive a Baha'i
training; that ye may each become a lighted candle in the world of
humanity, may be devoted to the service of all mankind, may give up your
rest and comfort, so that ye may become the cause of the tranquillity of
the world of creation.
Such is my hope for you and I trust that ye may become the cause of my joy
and gladness in the Kingdom of God.
