The Association for Baha'i Studies in Southern Africa
Dear Baha'i Friends,
The Universal House of Justice warmly acknowledges receipt of your
email message dated 29 December 1999, and it is pleased to note the
formation of the Association for Baha'i Studies in Southern Africa. Be
assured of the ardent prayers of the House of Justice in the Holy
Shrines for the success of this initiative, which will surely be warmly
welcomed and supported by the friends as it nurtures and encourages the
development of Baha'i scholarship throughout the Southern African
region.
With loving Baha'i greetings,
