He hopes that your committee will be able to gradually assist in the work allotted to the British National Spiritual Assembly during the Plan. The most important thing of course is to get the believers out into wholly virgin areas, and keep them there. So far, England has done nobly, and he is proud of their efforts. The Pacific area is also of great importance. If there is any possibility of British subjects going out to territories that are under the jurisdiction of other National Bodies, but difficult to get into, he feels that they should be referred to the committees concerned, or the National Spiritual Assemblies concerned, because of the importance of achieving all the goals of the Plan, regardless of which Assembly has certain goals under its immediate jurisdiction. He assures you he will pray for the success of your devoted labours, in the Holy Shrine. [From the Guardian:] May the Almighty bless your meritorious activities, guide and sustain you always, and enable you to lend a great impetus to the splendid work now being accomplished in Europe and in Asia. Your true brother, Shoghi Letter of 6 May 1954 6 May 1954 Dear Bahá’í Brother: Your loving letter of April 30th has just come to hand, calling attention to the fact that Olga Mills, one of the pioneers in Malta, is serving there very actively. The beloved Guardian had been informed by someone that she had left. However, the intent of the letter of April 24th still remains—that no pioneer should leave their goal unless for very urgent reasons. In the case of Malta, this is a country which can only be settled by English Bahá’ís, and therefore the Guardian feels it of great importance that any pioneer who goes there should remain. It is hoped that it may be possible for Una Townshend to return in due course, to carry on her work there. The Guardian asks that you convey to Olga Mills his loving appreciation of her devoted services, and assure her of his prayers in her behalf. If Una Townshend finds it impossible to return to Malta, then the Guardian hopes you can send some other pioneer to that important post.... Letter of 16 May 1954 16 May 1954 I am enclosing, at the instruction of our beloved Guardian, the original title-deed of one-quarter of an acre of land recently purchased near the resting-place of the Greatest Holy Leaf on Mount Carmel; and registered in the name of the Israel Branch of the National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá’ís of the British Isles. The cost of this property was six thousand dollars. He feels sure that the British Bahá’ís will rejoice to know that they now have a part of the International Bahá’í Endowments in the name of their own special Israel Branch....
