The Agape Group
A new monthly discussion Group starting on Monday 12th April 2010 from 7.30pm till 10pm at Joy’s Studio, Guadalmina, and thereafter every 2nd Monday of the month.
Each month there will be a guest speaker beginning with an introduction to Agape by Joy Fahey. The program of speakers will be announced on the first meeting.
The objective of the group is to bring people together to discuss interesting relative subjects on increasing our learning and fulfillment of life, expanding our minds, and giving food for thought.
The format will be very much a sharing one. The talk will last about ½ an hour followed by questions and discussion.  Then there will be a light supper, with drinks, wine, beer and soft drinks . There will be a small fee of 10 Euros, food and drinks provided.
Please RSVP ASAP so I know the numbers and can prepare. I have a great program of speakers lined up for the next few months. Including a wonderful talk by Jenny Lewis, a leading authority on Chinese textiles talking on Costumes for the 8 Oscar winning film The Last Emperor. This will be on Monday May 10th, something very special to look forward to. Perhaps you can forward this on to friends who might be interested in our group.
Please RSVP to  joyfahey@gmail.com <mailto:joyfahey@gmail.com> with your confirmation and to receive directions.

Manacare Charity Party
On
Wednesday 14th April
At
Joy’s Studio Guadalmina
From 8pm till 12pm.
Buffett, Music, Raffle, and a Manacare Presentation Update.
Tickets are 40 Euros.
Joy Butler Markham, the founder of Manacare, is here in Spain for a few days from Sri Lanka where she has been living for the last 5 years since the Tsunami. She has more than achieved her goal of building a village which many of you helped raise the money for and now facilitates over 1000 men, women and especially children with housing, schooling an on site medical and therapy centre, workrooms and much more.  The project is nearly finished and is well on its way to becoming self sufficient. What an incredible achievement! Joy has single handedly put this project together and stayed the course to see it through to really making a difference to so many peoples lives.
The Fund Raising Party will help towards the completion of the project, finishing the facility that will train young teenage girls in all domestic work to enable them to work and keep them off the streets.
Many of us have given to the Haiti disaster as we did the Tsunami but rebuilding both buildings and lives takes a long time. Not many people have the staying power to complete the course. In fact Manacare is one of only a very few charities left in Sri Lanka actually on the ground still doing something.
As you may know all money raised for Manacare goes directly to the project, there are no fancy offices, big four wheel drive cars and no staff. Joy does everything herself from her small house in the bush.
I am delighted to open my house to having this impromptu party. It will be a fun night with lots of great raffle prizes, and an opportunity catch up with friends and to speak with Joy directly about her work.
Please RSVP ASAP and I will send you directions. I very much look forward to seeing you
