THE ALPHA COURSE: Exploring some of the big questions about life, God and faith
WHERE: St Chads Church and Community Centre, 38 Saint Johns Road, St Johns, Auckland.
WHEN: Starting Wednesday 7 June from 6:30 - 9pm, for seven weeks.
WHAT: We commit to creating a safe and hospitable space where people can thoughtfully and respectfully explore some of the big questions about life and God. Each week will start with a meal and then we will explore one of the following themes through video content and discussion: Is there more to life than this? Who is Jesus? Why did Jesus die? How can I have faith? Why and how do I pray? Why and how should I read my Bible?
Please send your expression of interest to alpha@stchads.org.nz
Why not come along to our first session on 7 June and see if it is for you.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
