Come along to our free public lecture: on Saturday, April 6th between 10.30 -1 pm, at Turanga/Central Library, 60 Cathedral Square, Central Christchurch.

For many people, it is time to explore a deeper meaning of life — to know thyself‚ as the ancient philosophers urged. One way to do this is through studying with the Rosicrucian Order.

You will explore how the human mind works, learn self healing techniques, unleash your full creative potential, empower yourself to achieve new goals, practise effective meditation to realise inner peace and harmony, and most importantly, discover your mystical connection with the universe. All this is done through home learning and personal experimentation, although there are local groups to join if you wish.

The Rosicrucian Order AMORC is nonprofit, non-religious, non-political. It is an international organisation — the largest of its kind in the western world — of educators, students and seekers exploring inner wisdom and the meaning of life.

To find out if The Rosicrucian Order can benefit you, go to the website www.amorc.org.au, or for the free, no obligation booklet Mastery Of Life phone 027 552 7777, or email nzrc@amorc.org.au

Black cat found

Angela from Bryndwr

**Please contact SPCA. It needed vet care and they have him. Has your cat gone missing? This morning we had a very sad, hungry pussy on our doorstep. Completely tame but very hungry. We have fed and watered. Seems like it may have been trapped somewhere as very thin. Aorangi Road, Bryndwr

Songkran Festival
Celebrate the traditional Thai New Year!


Songkran, the traditional Thai New Year, is celebrated nationwide in Thailand, usually from 13 to 15 April.

One part of the celebration is religious, marked by merit-making at local temples, ceremonial bathing of Buddha images as a symbol of homage, sprinkling parents’ or elders’ palms with a few drops of perfumed water as a demonstration of love and respect, and ceremonies to pay respects to members of our families, and friends, who have passed away.

Other parts of Songkran are fun-filled, with good-natured water throwing, cultural performances, music, dance, sports, and games.

Here in Christchurch, at Wat Buddha Samakhee, we will gather to observe the occasion on Sunday 14 April 2019 with monster Thai food fair, Thai music and dance, lucky dip, and Miss Songkran beauty contest.

The Songkran Festival Organising Committee cordially invites you, your family, and friends, to join with the local Thai community to celebrate Songkran.

When:
14 April 2019
10am to 3pm

Venue:
Thai Buddhist Temple (Wat Buddha Samakhee)
359 Marshland Road

Pricing: Free

Three teenagers are planning a march in Christchurch this weekend to "spread love" in the city after Friday's tragic shootings.

St Andrew's College students Ella Clearwater, Marshall Setu and Manaia Butler, all 16, are organising the March for Love event on Saturday at North Hagley Park.

Rolleston Ave would close so the group could march from North Hagley Park to the flowers outside the botanic gardens. The march will start at 10am.

Scott Esdaile is organising another event called Remember Those Who Lost Their Lives 15-3-19 on Sunday from 5pm to 7pm, also at North Hagley Park.

The event was originally planned for Tuesday in Cathedral Square but it was postponed until Thursday, then again until Saturday, out of respect for the Muslim community.
