CME Leadership Day at FGS Auckland

The Counties Manukau East Police Station CME Leadership Day was held on 25th May 2022 at FGS Auckland Temple. There were 35 officers who participated in the conference, including Area Commander of Counties Manukau East, Inspector Scott Gemmell and Inspector Colin Higson. In addition, Deputy Commissioner Glenn Dunbier and Assistant Commissioner Richard Chambers joined the conference online from Wellington HQ. FGS NZ Abbess Manshin was invited to say a prayer for the ceremony. Inspector Gemmell thanked the Abbess and the Temple Team with a Māori blessing.

As the Temple was holding The 8th 3G4G Festival of Cultural Sharing throughout May, the CME Leadership Day coincided with 400 year 4 to 6 students visiting the Temple as part of the 3G4G education program. Abbess invited Insp Gemmell and clinical psychologist Rajna Bogdanovic to the Prince Siddhartha Exhibition Hall and Venerable Master’s One Stroke Calligraphy Exhibition to observe the students’ participation in the education program.

Abbess explained that the 3G4G program has run for 8 years and that over 24,000 students, teachers and parents have participated. The program has taught students about the value of The Three Goodness, purifying one’s mind and fostering a quality mindset. Abbess also expressed appreciation to the Police Department for sending a number of police officers every year to support the event, and for guiding the students to develop a positive outlook on life.

Inspector Gemmell expressed his gratitude to the Abbess and the team for the hospitality and quality of service they provided. They were grateful that while the Temple has been busy with the 3G4G education program throughout May, the Temple still managed to arrange for the leadership day and conference to be held. The police officers were glad to complete the training session in such a beautiful space whilst calming their minds.
