Subud Durham was established in 1995. 46 helpers and four international helpers (HIs) attended the gathering ( Halinah, Helena, Kohar and Hoan Toàn),

8 national helpers (4 women and 4 men), 7 regional helpers (5 women and 2 men).

The IHs, NHs and RHs met on Friday 8th to discuss about the format of the meeting. Every helper was asked to share about their expectations regarding the meeting. Finally, there was an agreement to divide the 46 helpers in small groups with 4-5 helpers each.

Each group worked over three topics:

1.To test questions about the inner development of a helper. One helper stayed in the middle and the other three helpers stayed in a circle to received and shared the same question for the helper who stayed in the center.

2. Practicing the awareness testing.

3. Sharing experiences and personal testing.

At the end of the day, we sat in the circle to share experiences about what we have felt in the testing.

In general, the latihan was strong. Every helper seemed happy and satisfied about the outcome of the gathering.

The national Dewan worked very hard and harmoniously.

Sunday finishing with latihan and some general and personal testing.

Finally, the gathering was a very good, productive and blessed meeting.
