UFOs – The Big Question - Seminar 25/7/20
Throughout our history, UFOs have been seen in our skies and even recorded in many of our spiritual traditions. The big question is – what is their meaning in the great scheme of life?
This seminar will answer this timeless question based on the direct knowledge gained by the Founder of The Aetherius Society, Dr George King, through his contacts with extraterrestrial intelligences.
His direct contact, coupled with his ability to act as a yogic medium for their messages to humanity, bring a profound insight to this important subject.
It helps answer the many questions surrounding UFOs, the intelligences who operate them, where they come from and why they are here.

Hi neighbours. I'm looking to chat to some people about their religion for a project to be published in the Sunday Star-Times. The story will examine the role of religion and faith in New Zealand, and how it has changed over the last few decades.

Do you know of any unique places of worship in Auckland? Perhaps you have a special area in your home where your family meets to pray, or the way you cook and meet people is shaped by your faith? How does your faith help you through challenging times?

I'd love to hear from people of all religions - please email me a little bit about yourself at caroline.williams@stuff.co.nz if you're interested in sharing.

Hi neighbours,

Have you seen the arial photographs of the progress of construction on the major motorway project north of Auckland?

The Ōkahu Viaduct is a steel girder bridge that crosses Pūhoi Rd and Te Aqua Pūhoi.

Work is taking place near the Johnstones Hill tunnels, as part of the Ara Tūhono project that will extend the four-lane Northern Motorway (SH1) 18.5km from Pūhoi to just north of Warkworth, in a move aimed at improving road safety.

The motorway was scheduled to open at the end of 2021, but delays due to the coronavirus alert level 4 lockdown in April meant nearly five weeks of working time was lost.

Now, the new road is expected to be open in time for Queen’s Birthday weekend 2022. To read more, click here

The collaboration led to him having a "surreal" FaceTime call with West - one of his biggest inspirations. Sheikh's music is inspired by his work supporting Kiwi kids experiencing poverty through the charity he founded called Bread. Find out more about him and his work in the below story and video.
