Shoghi Effendi trusts that … your wife will be able to devote a little more time to her family, but he also hopes that you will be able to assist her in obtaining the time and opportunity to serve a Cause that is so dear and near to her heart and in which her services are much appreciated.

- Shoghi Effendi  (From a letter dated 19 June 1931 written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual; compilation: ‘Family Life’, prepared by the Research Department of the Universal House of Justice, revised March 2008)
