term for teacher of junior youth classes

2005-11-27 Thread Sandra Fotos

Dear friends,

What term is used for the teacher/tutor of junior youth study circles 
in North America?  In the UK and Australia, the term animator is 
used.  Does anyone know of other terms used in other locations?


(Please reply privately.)

Thanks in advance for your help.

PRAYER  FOR EMPLOYMENT
0 God! 0 God! Cause me to drink from the cup of Thy Bestowal. Illumine
my face with the Light of Guidance. Make me firm in faithfulness and
steadfastness in Thine Ancient Covenant. Suffer me to become one of Thy
sincere servants.
Open before my face the doors of prosperity. Prepare for me the means of
livelihood. Give me my bread through channels over which I have no
control,Thy Heavenly Treasures.
Grant me the power to turn my face toward thy Merciful Countenance, to
be faithful to Thy Cause. 0 Thou Clement and Compassionate One! Verily,
Thou art gracious to those who are firm and steadfast in Thy Strong and
Impregnable Covenant. Praise be to God, the Lord of the worlds!
`Abdu'l-Baha'
