Auckland Hope Concert
Date/Time: 5 June 2023, 7:00pm
Venue: Jean Batten Ballroom, Holiday Inn Auckland Airport
The Auckland Hope Concert aims to bring hope and inspiration to the local community through the power of music. As we all know, the COVID-19 epidemic has caused a lot of trouble, pain, anxiety, and fear around the world. Many people have suffered trauma and are struggling in darkness and confusion. To help people get out of the shadow of the pandemic and regain confidence and hope, Good News Mission has specially invited the world-class Gracias Choir to come to Auckland, New Zealand to hold the "Hope" concert.
The Gracias Choir, founded in 2000 by Rev. Park Ok-soo, the founder of Good News Mission, has won many world-class music awards, including first prizes and grand prizes at international choral festivals in Switzerland, Italy, Germany, and other countries. They hold hundreds of gospel concerts around the world every year, conveying the love and grace of the Lord Jesus and bringing joy and happiness to countless people. The Gracias Choir's annual Christmas concert tours around the world and has become a favorite program for many. Their performance at the Auckland Hope Concert promises to be a truly unforgettable experience. You can find more details about the Gracias Choir at www.graciaschoir.com....
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? π»π¨π
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
37.6% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
62.4% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, weβre a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature β and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
