Dear Miss Brooks,
The Guardian has just received the first issue of the newsletter published
by the N.S.A. of the Baha'i's of Australia and New-Zealand, and has read
it all through with deepest pleasure and satisfaction. He wishes me to ask
you to transmit to your fellow-members in that body his warmest thanks for
this new step they have taken for the further consolidation of the
Administration in their country, as well as his most hearty
congratulations upon the ever-increasing success that is attending their
labours in this field.
It is his fervent hope that this organ your Assembly has initiated will
fully serve its purpose by intensifying the spirit of cooperation between
the N.S.A. and all local assemblies, groups and isolated believers
throughout Australia and New-Zealand. Such a medium, if properly utilized,
can be of inestimable value to the believers, by further enriching their
knowledge and understanding of the principles and actual functioning of
the Administrative order of the Faith, and by maintaining alive, nay
intensifying in them the desire to promote and safeguard its interests.
He would, therefore, earnestly appeal to every believer in Australia and
New-Zealand to make full and continued use of this bulletin, and consider
it as a most effective means to closer fellowship and to a deeper
understanding of his duties and responsibilities as builder of the New
World Order of Baha'u'llah.
He is ardently praying to the Almighty to ever bless and guide your
Assembly's endeavours in this connection,
Yours in His Service,
H. Rabbani.
