The time is sure to come
and the signs are already apparent, when the various and distant members of
this great world community will find their activities co-ordinated, their
purpose unified, their efforts re-inforced and the effect of their combined
efforts manifest throughout the world. May the Power of Bahá’u’lláh breathe the
dynamic spirit of Life into the combined and systematized efforts of the
friends the world over and revive through them the body of stricken humanity
and give it the peace which it yearns for and which the world cannot give.
- Shoghi Effendi (From a letter to the Baha’is of Germany, dated 19 January
1923; ‘The
Light of Divine
Guidance, vol. 1’)
