Easter Themed Event
Cross Road is a presentation through drama and music of the events surrounding the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is an attempt to explore the facts, feelings and impressions of people who were witnesses to this history-defining event in a contemporary way and to highlight the Easter message.
The team mounting this production are all locals: Averil Bennett of Titahi Bay is the script writer, assisted by musicians Felicia Edgecombe and Rosemary Russell and Ken Edgecombe in production. It is based on Biblical accounts of the events, also Gordon Jaquiery’s recent publication: Eyewitness, Stories of Advent and Easter. Titahi Bay Community Church and Trinity Baptist are presenting the event, with participation from friends in other churches. It is on for three nights: Friday 22nd March, Saturday 23rd, and Sunday 24th at 7.30 pm at Titahi Bay Community Church 25 Mana Avenue. Supper follows. Entry is by Koha.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
