Laugh with your heart Rock with your brain!
Prepare yourself because it’s time to “Laugh with your heart Rock with your brain”... The Drug Education Agency is launching its new campaign – “Laugh with your heart Rock with your brain” - which aims to unite the people of the Mother City, through great, clean comedy, an awesome band and positive people.

The ”Laugh with your heart rock with your brain” campaign is a great initiative to create awareness of the services we offer with regards to substance abuse, as well as awareness of the dangers of drug abuse.

The Drug Education Agency (DEA) is an organization that promotes drug prevention and creates awareness and has been around since 2002. Our primary goal as an organization is to reach the masses out there and prevent the experimentation and abuse of narcotic substances. Our aim is not only to bring across the message that drugs are dangerous but also create awareness of the DEA.

  • What: “Laugh with your heart” comedy and band jam
  • When: Friday September 25th 2009 7pm STARTS 7:30PM
  • Where: 30 Main rd, Sea Point, Life Church Auditorium
  • Why: To create an awareness of the Drug Education Agency, and to make it known that the DEA is available and that we offer parent support groups, assessments and prevention programs and creating awareness.

LIFE CONFERENCE
The theme for this year's Life Conference was a "life of Influence"; a conference that is a heart felt experience to what Life Church is all about. Life Church hosted their 4th annual Conference over the weekend of the 19th to the 21st of September 2008 focusing on justice and righteousness. There was a twist in this year's conference - it was not a conference just about hearing and being empowered by great speakers, but about doing and being the hands and feet of Jesus. It was not a conference about what you can get out of it, but what you can give back to people in need.

SEED PROJECTS
At Life Church, we encourage our Life Groups to be involved in the community that their life group is located. One way of motivating this, is for them to be involved with Seed Projects. Seed Projects are random acts of kindness that the life group will do to encourage someone or an organisation and to show them that we care. It is all based on "See a need; fill the need". On 18 March 2009, all our life groups participated in Seed Projects.
