Sharing and Learning Café (SLC)
The Sharing and Learning Café (formerly know as Sharing Café) is designed as a platform for the local team as well as to inspire old and new friends through learning and sharing one’s thoughts and insights. This helps enhance one’s way of looking at life and to grow together as a community that cares about others 'struggle to change.
We added the word Café to make everyone feel relaxed, while having drinks and snacks and laughter amidst some heavy, meaningful and systematic discussions on topics of current interest. We sometimes have music, video presentations and guest lectures from overseas visitors.
We started in 2012. This has been a regular initiative over the last two and a half years. We’ve discussed various issues using inspirational articles from books and texts of IofC materials and videos. We intersperse this with some reflections and songs at times.
Over the group discussions we share our thoughts and insights and how these relate to our own experiences in life and see how we can improve and change our attitudes towards similar situations in the future. Held once a month from 4.00 – 6.00 pm, this has been a regular catch up time for those who participate.
