Hong Kong Cultural Centre
Almost 100 people, musicians and their family members, travelled to Germany for several charity concerts, where, for ten intense days of rehearsal and performances, the musicians played as volunteers to raise funds for local hospitals and music education for children.
It was a singularly unique event where the SAR-Philharmonic-Orchestra gained the opportunity to play under two different conductors and with a fantastic soloist.
Not only that, the orchestra members experienced Germany’s rich heritage of classical music and made new friends who share their passion for music making.
From rehearsing and performing in six locations in four cities, with two days of chamber music performances thrown in, to dinners, receptions, a wine tour, visits to castles, parks and churches, a visit to a master guitar maker, an expo for a green and sustainable future, and, of course, beerhalls to raise glasses to cameraderie...
This is a snapshot of their collective adventures.

July 26th, 6 pm Ludwigshafen BASF Feierabendhaus
July 29th, 7:30 pm Festhalle Wörth

Concert Recording available on YouTube
Haven of Hope Christian Service’s integration of medical and social services occurs at 46 locations, and has so far benefited about 100,000 people. It employs doctors, nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists, social workers and personal care workers. Many reverends lead regularly scheduled services at its facilities, which often include chapels. Medically, it focuses on chronic disease and mental or physical disability rather than acute illness. It also focuses on mental and spiritual counseling, and operates many different home-based and community-based programs aimed at the elderly and mentally challenged people.
Haven’s approach and philosophy remain rooted in the beliefs of Sister Annie Skau, a Norwegian nun and missionary who “saw the need of not only providing medical care, but also psychological and physical care” for the people it serves, said Dr. Lam Ching Choi, Haven’s CEO.
CIFA or the Consortium of Institutes on Family Limited is the regional organization in Asia providing a platform for trans-disciplinary collaboration with the ultimate goal to strengthen family functioning and promote family health in the region while contributing to the body of knowledge in relationship science in the international arena.
