Dear Bahá’í Friends,

Recently, two members of the National Spiritual Assembly, Ms. Deloria Bighorn and Ms. Élizabeth Wright, asked to be permitted to relinquish their membership on the National Assembly, owing to the effects of advancing years and the increasing demands of service.

Having studied guidance, and knowing that these requests have been made with the best interests of the Cause at heart, the Assembly has agreed to release Ms. Bighorn and Ms. Wright from membership with deep regret, love, and gratitude for their contributions to this institution.  They will continue to serve until the election of the new National Spiritual Assembly at the National Convention, to be held 19-22 May this year owing to the International Convention at Ridván.

With loving Bahá’í greetings,
NATIONAL SPIRITUAL ASSEMBLY
OF THE BAHÁ’ÍS OF CANADA
Karen McKye, Secretary
