The brilliant achievements of the heroic pioneers, the itinerant teachers,
the indefatigable administrators of Bahá'í teaching activities whether local,
regional or national, set the seal of total victory on the Seven Year Plan,
befittingly consummate the fifty year long enterprises undertaken by the
American Bahá'í Century. My heart is filled with joy, love, pride and
gratitude at the contemplation of the stupendous shining deeds immortalizing
the valiant prosecutors of the greatest collective enterprise ever launched in
the course of the history of the Faith of Bahá'u'lláh.
