IWG Update
Dear Ladies,
Last Thursday, many ladies shared beautiful moments together with the Fatales make-up specialists. This was our second time with the Fatales as the first one happened in December was loved by all ladies who participated. This time, we were quite happy that Fatales brought us products which was very convenient for ladies to make purchase. When Fatales was making demo session to everybody, Fafa volunteered kindly to make some translations from French to English. Nicole also made some lovely photos for ladies who received make-up treatment. I share some of these photos with you as attached. Many thanks to both Fafa and Nicole!
By the way, a beautiful bracelet was found on the floor near the front of the room. If that is yours, please drop me an email to claim. IWG February Coffee Gathering made a wonderful finish for our activities in February.
In March, some exciting IWG events are waiting for us to explore. As some events details are not fully fixed, here I am sharing with you some information. I will forward to everybody a March IWG event schedule once it is definite.

Following are some interesting social events forwarded to me by members to share with you.
On March 7, Friday, St George's Anglican Church (Mongi Slim, Hafsiye, Centre Ville) is hosting the annual, ecumenical World Day of Prayer (WDP) meeting at 7pm. It will be a bi-lingual service in English and French.
This year it has been prepared by an ecumenical committee in Egypt, so it will be particuarly relevant to us in North Africa!
There will be music, including some Arabic Christian music, a little drama and some hopefully meaningful things to listen to, watch and participate in. Refreshments will be served afterwards.
Everyone is welcome, male and female! Please pass this on to others who you think might like to know about it.
This news is kindly forwarded by Hilary. Thanks Hilary!
A 5-day workshop of Salsa and Kizomba (African dance) will be held in La Marsa in April (details see attached PDF flyer). The professional instructor of the workshop, Yuri Handem has an international experience of teaching salsa. Please spread the news!
This news is kindly forwarded by a Salsa lover, Zhanar. Many thanks, Zhanar!
If you have any interesting local event or news want to share with all members, please send it over to iwgtunis@hotmail.co.uk.
I am glad to announce that Nicole and I finally resolved the problem for the space of members advertisements on the Blog. As of now on, all members advertisements will be published at the bottom of the Blog not in the newsletter anymore.
Thank you for your time and attention.
Best regards,
Meng
