(100) TEACHINGS—Acceleration
The Guardian was very happy to learn that the teaching work in Alaska is
being accelerated. May the momentum being gained, not be lost, but on the
other hand intensified, so the forthcoming National Assembly may have a
wide and strong base.
The world is seeking for a solution for its increasing problems, and if
the friends arise with the dynamic spirit of the Faith, assured of final
victory, many seeking souls will enter the Faith, and find eternal life.
(101) TEACHING—Importance
(101) TEACHING—Importance
The more one observes the conditions of the world and the terrible
problems confronting humanity, the more deeply one realizes that the only
remedy is that which Bahá’u’lláh has brought, and yet, alas, the masses of
the people seem to not yet be aware that the way out of our problems can
only be a divine way, given by something far greater than human
understanding! However, many souls are seriously thinking and seeking, and
the Bahá’ís must try to bring the knowledge of the teachings to all, so
that those prepared to accept may not be denied the Message.

(102) TEACHING—Participation of Children
He is happy that the children are being attracted. They are the pillars of
the future, and should be trained and encouraged in every way, to learn
the details of the teachings, and how to teach others. For the true source
of existence is the diffusing of Glad Tidings.

He would certainly advise you to remain in Alaska and continue to teach
and give the small but devoted Community there your active support.

(104) TEACHING—Teaching Relatives
He would not advise you to in any way force the teachings on your husband,
but rather through prayer, love and example attract his heart to what he
will be forced to see has not only made you a happier person but a better
wife and mother than ever before. It is often most difficult to teach
those nearest to us, but the Guardian will earnestly pray that your
husband and children will join you in serving this wonderful Cause.
