One of the victories from the collective teaching Campaign in Southwest in August/September 2008 is the start of a children's class. It is located close to betway 8 and West Little York. There are about 10 non-Baha'i children in different age group. The main teacher is driving from Houston and the cluster institute coordinator is training 3 youth from Southwest to eventually take over the class. In addition, the class will eventually become 2 classes due to the gap in ages and human resources will be needed to assist.
In addition, there is a Ruhi Book 1 going on and teachers are talking to the parents and curious on lookers about the Baha'i Faith. One of the vision of the Five Year Plan is to give Baha'i Children classes and we are no longer offering virtue classes since we are in the process of growing our community. Everything is fully disclosed to the parents in what we are about. Actually one parent was not sending her children to the classes but that soon changed when she learnd more about who we were and a trust was built.
The multiplication of children classes can be done all over the cluster but we need YOU to arise and serve in this capacity. For those interested, please contact Samarih Monajjem and it is very easy to do a children class with some training and help!
