A SPIRITUAL QUEST
The Seekers of Joy Children Sing & Recite From the Baha’i Holy Scriptures in English, Arabic, French.
This project was made possible because of the creative imagination, the sacrificial efforts & constant optimism & most of all, the boundless energy of Linda Safajou, our amej’an (aunt) and friend.
It came from the dream of joining our talents and friendships as 4 cousins & 2 friends, spending the Australian summer of 2006 together in Sydney. This gave us the chance to develop the virtues of self-discipline, determination, preservation, creativity and most of all patience! It was also a very joyful experience.
Our diversity came from our many influences: Ethiopian, French, Israeli, Arab, English, Canadian and of course Australian! May we continue to grow in service to humankind wherever our lives take us.
Special Thanks to,
H’el’ene Safajou for heloping us stay on task. Heartfelt thanks to Ramin Rohani & Jimmy Safajou for the Catering. Many thanks to Phil evans for his time, patience and skills in the studio. special mention and gratitude to all our parents and grandparents.
