“...often a period of two weeks, demands the highest level of intensity. Its objective is to widen the circle of those interested in the Faith, to find receptive souls and to teach them.”

“...the goal is to augment the number of those willing to participate in core activities.”

- 27 Dec 2005, Universal House of Justice

“The friends who participate in these intensive programs of growth should bear in mind that the purpose is to ensure that that the Revelation of Bahá’u’lláh reaches the masses of humanity and enables them to achieve spiritual and material progress through the application of the Teachings...They cannot withhold whatever effort, whatever sacrifice may be called for.” - Universal House of Justice, 9 January 2001

“Above all the friends need to remain ever conscious of the magnitude of the spiritual forces that are at their disposition.”

- Universal House of Justice, 27 December 2005
