Love Thy Neighbour follows in the footsteps of Zac Young, ten years on since he was taken in a shark attack. The event is a celebration of the purpose he pursued in the last year of his life - to love people with the love he himself received from God. Zac's legacy is summed up in his favourite bible verse, perfect love casts out all fear.
A Celebration and a Coming Together
Love Thy Neighbour is a community-centered event with live music, stories, auctions, and a World Record Attempt for ‘Largest Paddle Out’. There will be food stalls, a charity auction, and screenings of clips from the upcoming documentary.
