Dear Neighbours and friends,

I am asking you to consider giving an hour or two of your time on Saturday to help us encourage people to look for a missing child.

The child could be anywhere. They are most certainly terrified, may be suffering horrific injuries, slowly starving to death, dying of thirst or buried alive along with their whanau, or even already dead. To make matters worse, we seem to be losing another child every 10 minutes now. These children come in all shapes and sizes, all ages from babies still in incubators, to young teenagers who have no hope for a future without pain and suffering.

We, who also come in all the shapes sizes, ages, genders and beliefs, have been meeting each Saturday to support people who are losing their children and families every day.

Please do come along and join us. There are more of us every week, but having you come along would mean a great deal to us and the families of the missing children.

We meet at : The Bridge of Remembrance (the bridge that has "Palestine" engraved in the stone)
When : Saturday
Time: 1 pm to 2pm

We may go for a heart warming stroll around the block afterwards. So do bring your families and friends, we would truly love to see you all. I can assure you that you will never regret coming along as you will immediately be accepted in the hearts of a family that transcends all borders, all nations.

Kia kaha e hoa arohanui,
Be strong for the children dear friends,

Respectfully yours,
Anton Wartmann

Things have changed a lot in my life: I realised I was the problem and I stopped blaming others.
Living in addiction, I used to see things as very black and white. I had set opinions about things and about who was right and who was wrong. Back when I was trying to fix myself and doing a lot of personal growth courses, I spoke with my husband and asked him, what my defects of character were. He said, “You think you are always right.”
