Dr Shang and Father Nanda have both generously given their time to share their knowledge and insights with the community.

Dr Shang spoke on acupuncture — its history, benefits, and its role as an alternative treatment option for those seeking the Traditional Chinese Medicine approach to wellbeing.

Father Nanda from St Matthew’s Church, Crows Nest, delivered a thoughtful and insightful talk on the Theology of Fasting, highlighting its spiritual significance, personal benefits, and the deeper meaning it brings to one’s faith journey.

Both talks will be aired on our *Voices of Faith* program on Radio 102.7 FM this June. Stay tuned and don’t miss these enriching conversations!
