The Guardian sincerely hopes and prays that the study of the
Dawn-Breakers will inspire the friends to greater activity and more exerted
energy in serving the Cause and spreading its message in that town. The life of
those heroes of the Faith should teach us what true sacrifice is, and to what
extent we should forego our personal and worldly interests while endeavouring
to carry the divine message to the four corners of the earth.
Shoghi Effendi would advise the friends in Rostock to hold
regular study classes and read that book with great care, committing its
salient facts to memory, so that while teaching the Cause, they may be able to
show the motivating spirit of the Faith by referring to some incidents of those
early days.
- Shoghi Effendi (From a letter dated 16 April 1933 written on
behalf of Shoghi Effendi; ‘The Light of Divine Guidance’, vol. 2)
