One California Bahá’í, Georgiana Dean, had moved from the West Coast

One California Bahá’í, Georgiana Dean, had moved from the West Coast at the request of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá to care for Mrs. Dealy, who was going blind. Miss Dean had abandoned a good job and a love for California to fulfill the Master's request. When Miss Dean met the other California Bahá’ís, she was overwhelmed by homesickness. Harriet Cline suggested she take the problem to ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, which she did.

When Miss Dean returned from her interview, tears were streaming down her face, but it shone with a radiance I have seldom seen. "He told me to stay with Mrs. Dealey as long as she needed me, and I am going to obey with all my heart and soul." Through her sincerity, however, her prayers were answered. Within a few days Mrs. Dealy no longer needed her and she was able to return to California.
