Bridges for Peace Helping IDF works to help Turkey Earthquake victims!
An Israeli team of medical and search and rescue personnel is on the ground in crisis-stricken Turkey to help pull survivors from the rubble, set up a field hospital and treat the wounded. Thanks to the generosity of Christians around the world, Bridges for Peace had the honor of outfitting the team with the thermal underwear, fleeces, gloves, hats, scarves and headlamps they needed to function optimally in the subzero temperatures in the disaster area. Ahead of Shabbat, Lt. Col. Schul, the chief of operations of the Israeli field hospital, took the time to say thank you.
The Israeli team has already saved 17 civilians from the crushing debris. The field hospital has opened its doors and Israeli medical personnel are working around the clock to treat the injured. The destruction is horrendous and the needs are mammoth. Israel is making every effort to come to Turkey's aid—and you can help.
You can partner with Israel's rescue efforts in Turkey by giving to our Crisis Assistance Fund. Your donations will be allocated to continue to equip the Israeli team as they save lives amid the devastation.

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?
All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.
But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.

Hospo owners give BNZ Theatre mixed reviews
After a busy opening week for BNZ Theatre, local restaurateurs have mixed feelings about its impact on diner numbers.
A first test for hospitality owners was over the weekend when Teeks and Sir Dave Dobbyn packed out the theatre. While some owners are feeling optimistic for the future, others believe the theatre has failed to deliver the promised crowds, albeit it is a quiet time of year.
