Call to Pioneering

Praises this “glorious conference” and says great works will flow from it. Recalls Henry Hyde and Clara Dunn’s arising to pioneer to Australia, a country about which they knew nothing. They arrived in Australia without much money and Henry was not well. Clara told Hand Robarts their story. They were the only married couple named Hands of the Cause of God. He then raised the call for those at the Conference to arise to pioneer. He said in 1953 eight hundred Baha’is were gathered at the Conference in Illinois and 75 arose to pioneer. He then called for Friends to arise at that moment and come to the table for pioneering.
