LATEST NEWS UPDATE: 6th April 2020
The NSW Government Public Health Order contains measures to reduce the COVID virus impact, see here and is effective at least until 23 June 2020 when it will presumably be reviewed, reinforced or revoked. It backs up the request for compliance with fines for individuals and organisations.
Although the Swedenborg Centre operates out of a residential building (Government differ a little bit for residents and families), since we are next to an associated place of worship which have been ordered to remain closed, we have therefore decided to turn the Centre's physical face-to-face interactions into a virtual interaction service for the foreseeable future.
The GOOD NEWS is that this online method of continuing what we do allows us to extend it to anyone in the country (anyone in the world!). Yay! So check the events column on the left for online events, and contact the Centre for an invitation to connect online. We use Zoom for group meetings, which is easy to setup and use, and all our communication includes those few simple instructions on how to set it up when using it for the first time. We have even added some extra occurrences for our regular events.
For one-on-one digital or phone contact we have a whole range of additional ways in addition to Zoom, such as Skype, FaceTime, Google Hangouts, etc. Please contact us to make arrangements using the means most comfortable and familiar to you.
Joe will continue to work daily without staff at the Centre, so please reach out by phone or email for anything which can be done remotely. We wish for everyone's health and happiness to be maintained or restored as much and quickly as possible and know that charitable good will, patience, love and care towards others is needed more now than at any other time.
We've updated our 'installation' at the Centre. After receiving a lot of attention, the Tree of World Religions from The 40 Foundation came down, to be replaced by the Cognitive Biases Codex which is already proving to be an excellent conversation starter. To go from a tree to a brain seems apt, since a tree signifies perception (AE828) and our organ of perception is the brain. Click on the images below to see either of these displays close-up: For an explanation of the biases listed in the codex, see here.
We are planning to change the website before end of May 2020, so keep your eye out for improvements and changes around then.
