The Convention sessions, held in the mornings and afternoons, will be attended by delegates and friends from Assemblies all over America and, We hope, by many friends from across the seas.

There, already, the spiritual atmosphere of the Kingdom is radiantiy manifest, a foretaste of the coming glory, when all sects and religions and peoples shall come together in unity and peace and worship in this great universal Temple. The day of spiritual organization, re TI-IE COMING ANNUAL CONVENTION many Tablets, is new gloriously ushered into world-wide activity by the Guardian and Center of the Bahai Cause, Shoghi Effendi in whom, today, the spirit of Abdul Baha is shining in splendor and who, Abdul Baha. tells us in his last Will and Testament is under the uncrring guidance of God. The coming Convention will rejoice to meet under the banner and guidance of our beloved Guardian who will lead the Cause of Unity “to glorious victory”. anticipate as a crowning event of the Congress and Convention the presence of Jenabe F azel, the distinguished Bahai philosopher and scholar of Persia who comes direct from the Holy Land and from the presence of Shoghi Effendi.
