We had two superb evenings with David McEachern this week. Thank you, David, for helping us to experience and to be all of the things!
GAC were on our annual retreat over the weekend, this year in Hunua. Needless to say, there was plenty of singing... but we also enjoyed some relaxing meditation, a fantastic barbecue dinner, lots of laughs and, ofcourse, more singing.
