Easter Themed Event
Cross Road is a presentation through drama and music of the events surrounding the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is an attempt to explore the facts, feelings and impressions of people who were witnesses to this history-defining event in a contemporary way and to highlight the Easter message.
The team mounting this production are all locals: Averil Bennett of Titahi Bay is the script writer, assisted by musicians Felicia Edgecombe and Rosemary Russell and Ken Edgecombe in production. It is based on Biblical accounts of the events, also Gordon Jaquiery’s recent publication: Eyewitness, Stories of Advent and Easter. Titahi Bay Community Church and Trinity Baptist are presenting the event, with participation from friends in other churches. It is on for three nights: Friday 22nd March, Saturday 23rd, and Sunday 24th at 7.30 pm at Titahi Bay Community Church 25 Mana Avenue. Supper follows. Entry is by Koha.

Celebrating International Volunteer Managers Day
We had a wonderful morning celebrating Te Whanganui-a-Tara volunteer managers at our International Volunteer Managers Day breakfast event.
It was inspiring to bring together local change-makers to discuss this year's theme: 'what's our future normal?' We shared reflections and aspirations for how we can play a role in shaping a stronger and brighter future for the voluntary sector.
Thank you so much to our generous sponsors Lighthouse Cinema, t leaf T, The Candle Shop, Wonderland Chocolate, Zealandia and Oat Cafe.
