Online Gatherings – Third Way Thinking
For some years now, we’ve gathered online once a month, to connect with and encourage AAANZ members and friends around Australia and Aotearoa/New Zealand. This gathering has been known as “First Saturday”, but after we decided to experiment a little with the day, this name doesn’t suit any more!
Introducing: “Third Way Thinking” – a new-look online monthly gathering. You’d be most welcome any time you’d like to join!
After the Zoom opens, there’s usually around 30 minutes of informal sharing and conversation.
The next hour usually includes a short meditation, and some discussion around a specific topic. This section is sometimes recorded.
When the formal session is complete, some people leave. Others stay a little longer to hear from and pray for people around the AAANZ network.
Contact us to request the Zoom link to the meeting, or check your email if you’re on our mailing list (info will be in the “Events & Actions” mailing in the third week of the month).
