Khadem Teaching Project July 28th 2007- July 28th 2008 Dallas Cluster, Dallas Teaching Teams around the Bahá’í Center On Saturday, July 28th 2007, over twenty-six people attended the Dallas Reaching-Teaching Seminar from many different clusters and cities, and the Khadem Teaching Project was successfully launched.  A vivid and outstanding collaboration between the Institutions of Learned, Rulers, and the RTI was at work. An Auxiliary Board Member, members of the Dallas Spiritual Assembly and the Dallas cluster teaching committee were represented. Fourteen teams were formed, each paired and teamed up with a Persian Martyr, in whose name the team was named. Areas around and near the Dallas Bahá’í Center were mapped and assigned to a team member. The effort is to be regularly monitored and sustained for a year and would last until July 28th 2008.                         In addition to the Dallas cluster at the Dallas Reaching-Teaching Seminar, other clusters were represented and teams were formed, and, as with the Dallas cluster, teams paired and teamed up with a Persian Martyr, and were asked to assign themselves an area in which they would be working.

Teaching News in the Southern Region of USA, in summer 2007 Several highly successful youth projects were held in the summer of 2007.  These projects created opportunities for more than 150 youth to develop their teaching skills and confidence in reaching out and effectively delivering the Message.  Applying new-found skills derived from the practices of the institute courses and energized by the love of Bahá’u’lláh, these youth arose to serve in the forefront of teaching.  Youth reached out to receptive populations, initiated junior youth groups and neighborhood children’s classes with numerous seekers, held firesides, engaged in home visits, and tutored study circles.  They traveled to clusters as traveling teachers and trained human resources to reinforce and augment the integrated process of expansion and consolidation in those areas.
