The tide of rubbish shows no signs of ebbing. Everything from food packaging and drink cans to supermarket trolleys and Lime scooters litter the banks of the Waikato River where it flows through Hamilton.
Now river warrior Norm Hill is turning his attention to the source of the waste.

Addictive Eaters Anonymous (AEA) is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from addictive eating.
AEA has members who have suffered from anorexia, bulimia and binge eating. Many have been underweight, overweight or obese; others were people of average weight yet suffered with an obsession with food. Members may have used exercise and other substances to try and control their weight. Before coming to AEA, members found that they were powerless over food, and unable to stop the food obsession.

A vacant Hamilton site has become an unofficial dumping ground, with everything from broken kids’ toys to beer cans. Even an empty Christmas stocking is among the debris - which comes with absolutely no festive cheer.

The course takes place on Wednesday nights 7:00-8:30pm beginning on 31 July 2024. This is a History and Religious Studies course designed towards learning more about the complex history and context of the Middle-East and the rise of early Judaism and the emergence of Christianity. More specifically, this 6-week course examines the religio-cultural matrix spanning Ancient Israel, Greek & Roman rule, through the destruction of the Second Temple. This period produced Judaism, Jesus and the earliest Jesus movement prior to the emergence of a new religion called Christianity. It was an era of rapid religious change and uncertainty, massive cultural clashes and unending political turmoil, yet it was also an era of great religious creativity and diversity.
