To all believers in the United Kingdom
Dearly loved Friends,
Please find enclosed a specially produced copy of the fourteenth of the Tablets of the Divine Plan, the last in the series of these visionary epistles. It was revealed by ‘Abdu’l Bahá a hundred years ago on 8 March 1917, in the summerhouse (Ismá’íl Áqá’s room) of His residence in Haifa, and was addressed to the Bahá’ís of the United States and Canada.
The National Spiritual Assembly is confident that reflection upon these Tablets will inspire the friends to ever greater heights of service in pursuit of the goals of the current Five Year Plan. In this connection, the following words of the Universal House of Justice concerning the Tablets of the Divine Plan, from its letter dated 26 March 2016 to the Bahá’ís of the United States and Canada, find special and profound significance:
This is a time for jubilation. Take pride in the sacrifices and victories of so many devoted souls who arose in response to ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s call. With the same spirit of renunciation shown by your predecessors, cast away the idle fancies and distractions of a world that has lost its way that you may consecrate yourselves in the next five years to the priceless opportunities and inescapable obligations of the latest stage of a spiritual enterprise on which the fate of humanity ultimately depends.
With loving Bahá’í greetings,
Patrick O’Mara,
Secretary
