A talk by psychotherapist Mariella Dimech open to everyone

This Friday's meeting will be dealing with the story of the Centurion who pleaded with Jesus to heal his servant. We have often heard this story and we always admired the Centurion's faith in Jesus. Yet, is that all that the story tells us? What about the relationship between the Centurion and his servant? Was it a 'normal' owner-slave relationship? What did the servant really mean for the Centurion. Friday's meeting will be exploring this theme from a Queer perspective.

Friday's session will also be interesting for another reason. A yoga teacher, Jonathan Orchard, has offered to guide us through the basics of yoga and conscious breathing. It will be a great opportunity to relax and learn new ways of being!

So we look forward to seeing you!

LGBTI meeting - Friday 20 April 2018

This Friday 20 April, we will be organising our bi-monthly meeting at the Fortini Learning Centre at 7.30pm. During this meeting a group of BSc. Nursing students, who have attended a number of sessions of the LGBTI space, will be presenting their findings on Transgender health.

We will be discussing this issue in the wider context of the Trans Health policy that has been issued in the past week, as well as in the light of the proposed amendments to the Embryo Protection Act (IVF).

We look forward to a healthy conversation and dialogue!
