Hey Daniel, the group which is working on fair trade stuff, etc from Forum is about to send out a document to all the different parishes to find out who is doing what. It's the first phase of our "master plan" - named that phase Scope. So we will hopefully know in a month or two's time. |

Heya, if you wanna check out more about the recent fair trade stuff. There's a few facebook groups, and this one has a link to that Trade Aid vs. Whittakers Close Up article.
Michael - good on you! Daniel - when's ur speech?
Cadbury recently announced it's dairy milk will be fair trade by the time Easter rolls round next year. It's great, but I think it's a bit ridiculous that so much thanks and praise is being thrown their direction considering it's more like a pressure/marketing ploy than because it's the right thing to do.
There are a few companies who have just jumped on to the bandwagon, and only half way. I'm more appreciative of companies like Wildbean who not only have 100% fair trade coffee but also their hot choc is too - and they did it out of their own convictions.
I'm hoping to get this Fair trade in Churches thing up and off the ground shortly. But I'm gonna need a person from each diocese? So can you let me know if you are keen otherwise I may have to invest energy into Wellington Dio' before I can get it happening elsewhere |

Hey Daniel,
Yup I certainly do. There's a huge part which needs to be grass roots like - so I need people in their own diocese to be contacting parishes in their own diocese to make things a bit personal. It will be after a questionaire is sent out. So to know your keen is much appreciated. When things get rolling I'll brief you on the plan/intentions.
Thanks!
Also if you want any opinions/help on your speech let me know. |

As you may know, the Waiapu diocese is formed of 3 regions, so we would have 3 people, 1 for each region, as we are a fairly wide diocese, I am willing to do Hawkes Bay region
Also I can't really give pointers on my speech it just happened.. and because of it now I have to enter a speech competition ._. _________________ I just lost the game

yea, anyway, we have to give a PERSUASIVE speech, so ideas about how to persuade people would be good... _________________ ACH!!! Akummin allahut! Ku doseiru! Nien!! De acutun!! Pizza ga suki desu!!! Kotaiiru!! Mien korrka!!! |
