Engaging with friends from the wider community
These suggestions may be helpful for interesting others in attending the summer school or in engaging with others following the summer school.
Arrange a time to view any of the following videos, either in full or in part:
After the viewing, have a conversation based on the film.
- Pick a topic such as the equality of men and women, oneness of humanity, human rights and well-being of all, community building, youth as protagonists of change, how to work together and care for each other during the global health crisis, etc. Study a few poignant quotations relating to this topic to spark conversation. Try to be action oriented.
- Arrange a special day with whanau and friends of participants from an existing children’s class, junior youth group, study circle or group of friends that hold a regular devotional gathering. Depending on needs, interests, energies and resources, these groups could either focus on learning something, strengthening their fellowship and unity, doing some service to the local community, or creating arts together.
Promotional items
Promotional items such as Flyers and Posters may be made available to support promotion of the summer schools.
Flyer for Host Assemblies to distribute (editable version):
Below is a downloaded flyer for this year’s summer school – ‘True practitioners of peace’. It has been designed with a wider audience in mind and is available for host Assemblies to edit with the finer details of their summer school event (date, venue, contact etc). It outlines the 4-day programme and provides general information about the themes of this summer school, and what can be expected.
