SGM Greater Wellington-Kapiti News - End of Year 2012

As the image right indicates, SGM have published the print version of the National 2013 Calendar. This has been posted to all on the national database.

You didn't get one?

Send an email to Joanne Garton - National SGM Administrator or phone 09 267 5957.

The Calendar has info about a number of SGM related activities including their spiritual director training programme and how you may subscribe to the Refresh magazine. In fact the latest mailing came with a new copy of Refresh entitled, "I and Thou." The SGM 2013 Calendar will shortly be added as a PDF file to the www.sgm.org.nz website.

A full programme of contemplative spirituality events and activities has been planned for 2013 in the Wellington-Kapiti Region and is being promoted by the SGM Wellington-Kapiti organising group. Most of these events will appear on this website, along with additions and ammendments as they are advised. A link to News Blog posts like this will be emailed to those on the Wellingto-Kapiti "list" periodically.
