Week of Prayer for World Peace 2020 (11-18 October)

David and Sandra from Saint Leonards

Although the founding of the Week of Prayer for World Peace in 1974 was a Christian initiative in the UK, it soon became an inter-faith and international activity, and now welcomes everyone of any faith, or none, to take part. On Monday 12 October, at 7.00 pm, there will be an evening of devotions, readings, music, and film about World Peace, hosted by the Hastings Baha’i community, at the Heretaunga Women’s Centre, on the corner of Eastbourne and Russell Streets, Hastings. Everyone is welcome and there is no fee. For a full list of local activities during the Week, send an email to: hbinterfaith@gmail.com

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
