Games Night
Save the date for our next games night! meet at 7pm in Te Korōria, invite along your friends and neighbours.
Trail Mixers
We had our first Trail Mixers event last Saturday. It was so good to see such a great turnout! There were 28 of us and 3 keen dogs making the most of the new group.
We definitely achieved the aim – to meet people, share the walk, enjoy good conversation and have time out in the beautiful nature of Karori. Great weather and a cafe stop afterwards was a big bonus. A definite win all round! We aim to meet on the last Saturday of each month. The plan is for a different route each time but sticking to the trails. Check the start point – it may be different each time.
Our Next meet is 28th June so save the date!

Devotionals and Studies for House Churches
‘Keller is a very trustworthy applied theologian and pastor. His insight into scripture and its relevance to us today is on a par with NT Wright. A prolific writer and very good church leader, he has written this practical and challenging daily devotional for everyone to use with a focus on what we can know about God’s ways. We are using it every day as staff in the office and thoroughly recommend it for House Church use and individual daily devotions. We currently have two copies in the church library able to be taken out.’ Rev. Ian Cook
