A WORD FROM THE AUTHOR The Bahá'à writings encourage us to deliver speeches of high quality, to contribute to the betterment of society, and to strengthen our capacities for teaching and service. It is hoped that this guide book will serve as a useful tool. As our children and youth arise to play their part, these public speaking workshops should help to confirm their Bahá'à identity, strengthen their reliance on God, and empower them to express with increasing eloquence "high ideals and goals" so they may "cast their beams like brilliant candles on the world." ('Abdu'l-Bahá, Selections, p.136) I am profoundly grateful to my loving family without whose support this book would not have been possible.
