Final Heart of a Child Pre-Meeting Kicks off Event!
The final preparatory meeting for the “Heart of a Child” children’s week was held on 7th November and was chaired by both the presidents of YAD 1 and YAD 2. Around 20 people attended this final meeting, including the guiding Venerables, administration team, media team, publicity team and members of BLIA South Island.
The meeting discussed the final details of the event such as the confirmation of group bookings, visits from the media, final recommendations, event schedules and guest speakers. This year’s “Heart of a Child” is organised solely by YAD, and through the many meetings and discussions, each YAD member has gained new skills and experiences and further developed their ability to create and work with structures and systems. They have also adopted a strong will to execute their plans, and have brought joy to all those who have witnessed them grow with time.
Later in the evening of the same day, the youth members were taken on a final run through of the Temple tour, and were reminded of things to keep in mind and be cautious about during the event, including possible scenarios that may occur. Venerable Juexi also encouraged everyone to put their hearts and souls into helping out with this event, and use their loving and compassionate heart to establish good affinities with the children guests.
