"It has not yet reached that level here in Ireland, as far as I am aware. What things is one not eligible for in the USA atthe moment if one has not done a certain ruhi book?"
Dear Janine, I only know of two things that Ruhi was made a requirement for. One was was homefront pioneering and the other one was for a curriculum position at one of the permanent summer schools. The latter doesn't make sense because all along the institutions have been saying that institutes aren't summer schools. Therefore summer schools shouldn't be institutes. But I've seen our NSA discourage institutes from making certain books required for veteran believers before they can serve. It has mostly been in communities overseas that I've heard of Ruhi being made a prerequisite for teaching children's classes or participating in teaching campaigns. I know of some local communities in the UK that have done this, for instance. warmest, Susan __________________________________________________ You are subscribed to Baha'i Studies as: mailto:archive@mail-archive.com To unsubscribe, send a blank email to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe, use subscribe bahai-st in the message body to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Baha'i Studies is available through the following: Mail - mailto:bahai-st@list.jccc.edu Web - http://list.jccc.edu/read/?forum=bahai-st News - news://list.jccc.edu/bahai-st Public - http://www.escribe.com/religion/bahaist Old Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.net New Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.edu
