"You are the Bahá'í Youth who are going to grow up during one of the most moving times in this second Bahá'í century, the ten years of great pioneer activity which will fall between the present Holy Year and the Most Great Jubilee which will mark the hundredth anniversary of Bahá’u’lláh's Declaration in Baghdad. You can see before you the vast territories to be won over to the Faith in the coming decade, and, if you set your mind to it, can choose a place where you want to pioneer and prepare yourself for this thrilling service!
"From Tibet to the South Seas, Africa to far off points in Asia and Europe—there are lands waiting to be opened to the Faith. He will pray that some of you may be the ones to render this form of service."
(From letter dated August 19, 1952, written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to the Second Session Junior Bahá'í Youth, Louhelen Bahá'í School)
