Extract from letter from Universal House of Justice addressed to all National Spiritual Assemblies on the 12th May 2009:
The work being carried out at the World Centre of the Faith represents far
more than repair, renovation, and beautification of buildings and gardens of historic
significance. It can best be assessed by reference to Baha’u'llah’s designation of Mount Carmel
as “the seat of God’s throne” and by recognition of His followers that the Qiblih is the
holiest spot on the surface of the planet, while the places in which He found respite are
forever sanctified by His presence. From that perspective those who participate in this endeavour,
either through their dedicated labours or through their sacrificial contributions of funds, are
privileged to an extent far beyond their capacity to comprehend.

“Man’s merit lieth in service and virtue and not in the pageantry of wealth and riches. Take heed that your words be purged from idle fancies and worldly desires and your deeds be cleansed from craftiness and suspicion. Dissipate not the wealth of your precious lives in the pursuit of evil and corrupt affection, nor let your endeavours be spent in promoting your personal interest.”
Baha’u'llah

“Bahá’u'lláh has drawn the circle of unity, He has made a design for the uniting of all the peoples, and for the gathering of them all under the shelter of the tent of universal unity. This is the work of the Divine Bounty, and we must all strive with heart and soul until we have the reality of unity in our midst, and as we work, so will strength be given unto us.”
Abdu’l-Bahá, Paris Talks, p. 46
