Love in Action - A Photographic Documentary Book

Love in Action is a story of hope: how one ordinary neighbourhood in the corner of the world - Manly, in Sydney, Australia - formed a relationship with the people of Manado, Indonesia, to take action against poverty. From its small beginnings with only a handful of residents, this grassroots movement has captured the imagination of Manly's wider community. It now includes support of local council, local businesses, schools and churches, and over 13,000 residents.

With over 100 stunning photographs shot by photographer Stuart Harris and words by Jim Collins, Love in Action captures the inspiring story of a community taking action against poverty. Thousands of lives have now been transformed as opportunity, dignity, freedom and hope flow from the relationship between the people of Manly and Manado. Discover some of the treasures that can be unearthed through the efforts of a community partnership and learn how you too can play your part in making our world a better place.

Love in Action, the book, is available now. You can read the blog below and participate by leaving comments.

You can purchase the book online today. See the Buy Book button above. Profits raised from the sale of this book will be donated to benefit the communities that we visited in Manado.

Love in Action, featured on Compassion’s website

Wednesday, 29 July, 2009 Posted in News

With only 2 days to go until the official launch of Love in Action, we are starting to see things heat up on the publicity side. Compassion have featured the book on their website, and the Mayor of Manly, Jean Hay, has written the headline piece for her weekly newsletter featuring Love in Action. We were interviewed today by the Manly Daily. Check out Friday’s edition for the news.

The guest list is looking fantastic. We have some very distinguished guests coming. I’ll leave the surprise for the night, but I’m excited. I met with Ken Duncan for lunch today. He flew in just this week from Africa and is looking forward to coming to the launch event.
