Shoghi Effendi was also pleased to learn of the response
which his last general communication ['The Dispensation of Bahá'u'lláh' (in
'The World Order of Bahá'u'lláh', pp. 97-161)] addressed to the friends in the
West has awakened in your community, It is his hope that the believers will,
through their careful and continued study of this important communication,
acquire a new vision of the Cause, and will be stimulated to redouble their
efforts for the expansion and consolidation of their work for the Faith.
