He is indeed immeasurably delighted to know that thanks to
your earnest and wise efforts, and to the loving assistance and co-operation of
the friends, Louhelen Ranch is steadily progressing and is increasingly
fulfilling those ideal conditions which it should be the aim of every Bahá'í
summer school to create, maintain and enforce, namely: close association and
fellowship, both social and spiritual, among the attendants, intellectual
training in the history, principles and teachings of the Cause, and the application
to one's life of the principles of moral conduct as explained and clarified by
the Guardian himself in his "Advent of Divine Justice".
