Peggy Ross, Mrs. Lily Ann Irwin, Mrs. Katherine Moscrop, Mr. Fred Graham, Miss Nancy Campbell, Miss Amy Putnam and Miss Winnifred Harvey. [CBN No88 May 1957 p1]

  • Seven weekend seminars conducted by Allan Raynor on "The Covenant and the Individual" were organized throughout Canada for the deepening, strengthening and confirming of believers and close contacts. The course "The Covenant and the Institutions" was first conducted first in BC in March, 1956 and subsequently in every other province. Bahá'ís and prospective believers were encouraged to become with the Will and Testement of 'Abdu'l-Baha, The Tablet of the Branch (BWFp207), The Book of the Covenant and the Dispensation of Baha'u'llah. Participants were also encouraged to study the Covenant and the Administration". (Note: the name of the course was reported as both "The Covenant and the Individual" and "The Covenant and the Institutions".). [CBN No88 May 1957 p2; CBN No 89 June 1957 p1]
