SUMMARY:Alpha New Zealand City-by-City Advertising Campaign 24
DESCRIPTION:After a successful campaign in 2023\, Alpha New Zealand is once again planning on running an Advertising Campaign across the country from 8th April 24 to 21st April 24.  \n\nOur aim is to provide advertising through a range of media such as billboards\, radio and social media that will cover New Zealands main centres and key locations so to support the local New Zealand Church in it’s mission. \nThe advertising campaign will give the opportunity for thousands of people to find an Alpha Course in Terms 2 (and 3) of 2024 who would not otherwise hear about the course or be invited. \nWith public advertising all sharing the same message\, the advertising asks one of life’s big questions followed by the suggestion to “#Try Alpha”.  \nIf you would like to: \n\nDonate towards the campaign: Alpha New Zealand Donate: fund City-by-City Campaign \nDiscuss how you can be involved: contact Suzanne@alpha.org.nz or your local regional coach\nTry Alpha: Find a course near you\n\nFor further information: www.alpha.org.nz/city-by-city

SUMMARY:Divine Renovation – Clothed in Power
DESCRIPTION:Parish renewal takes a lot of work and perseverance. But hard work can only get you so far — and it’s easy to be discouraged when it doesn’t bear the fruit you had hoped for.

This is why Divine Renovation and Alpha invite you our upcoming online event\, Clothed In Power: Transforming Parishes Through the Holy Spirit. \nJoin Dr. Mary Healy\, Fr. Alex Colautti\, Sarah Kaczmarek\, and Fr. John Adams for a conversation on making the Holy Spirit the driving force behind your parish’s renewal.  \nDownload this free resource on the 3 Keys to Unlocking Your Parish\, where you can dive deeper into the power of the Holy spirit.
