Dear Bahá’í Friends,
70.1 With great joy we announce that we have decided to increase the total number of members of the Continental Boards of Counselors for the Protection and Propagation of the Faith to thirty-eight by adding John McHenry III to the Continental Board of Counselors in North East Asia and Mas‘úd Khamsí to the Continental Board of Counselors in South America, raising the number of Counselors on each Board to three and four, respectively.
70.2 We also rejoice to announce the appointment of Mrs. Shirin Boman to the Continental Board of Counselors of Western Asia to fill a vacancy on that Board.
70.3 The devoted efforts of all eleven Continental Boards of Counselors during the first year of their service to the Faith of Bahá’u’lláh have been most exemplary and praiseworthy. We are deeply grateful for the loyalty, steadfastness and devotion which have characterized the activities of all members in reinforcing the vitally important work of the Hands of the Cause of God.
70.4 Please share these glad tidings with the friends.
- With loving Bahá’í greetings,
- THE UNIVERSAL HOUSE OF JUSTICE
