My Brothers!
Your place is very constricted, but the expansiveness of your hearts does not allow this to distress you; it is also relatively freer than where I am. Know that solidarity is our firmest strength and support. Beware! Do not let the irritability caused by these tribulations make you find fault with one another. Complaining and blaming each other and saying “If such‑and-such had not happened it would not have been like this” is the equivalent of complaining about fate and divine determining; do not do this. I have realized that there was no way we could have been saved from their assaults, whatever we did they would have attacked us. For the short time till divine grace comes to our assistance, we must respond with patience and thanks, and resignation towards the divine decree and submission to divine determining, and try to gain plentiful reward and merit with few acts.
I pray for the well‑being of our brothers there.
