Invitation
We would like to invite you to a solo art exhibition and a silent art auction that is held to raise much-needed funds to be donated to the children of Sri Lanka.
Lion Nirupa Peiris, an Auckland-based artist is donating her paintings to be auctioned at a silent auction to raise funds to purchase much-needed medicines for the Lady Ridgeway Children's Hospital in Colombo, Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka is in the worst ever economic crisis caused by political turmoil currently. The lack of essential medicines in public hospitals is one of the aspects that need urgent attention.
All donations from this project will be credited to the Mount Roskill Baptist Church account and passed on directly to the hospital.
Poll: 🗑️ Would you be keen to switch to a fortnightly rubbish collection, or do you prefer things as they are?

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
