“duties of Baha'i Assemblies in assisting the newly declared believer”

The beloved Guardian referring to the duties of Baha'i Assemblies in assisting the newly declared believer has written:  "... the members of each and every Assembly should endeavour, by their patience, their love, their tact and wisdom, to nurse, subsequent to his admission, the newcomer into Baha'i maturity, and win him over gradually to the unreserved acceptance of whatever has been ordained in the teachings."
