Karakia Rātapu

10:30am - Hākari Tapu a-Whānau

Our weekly contemporary whānau service:

Our bilingual (Māori & English) family service includes songs of praise, Scripture readings, a reflective kauwhau (sermon), and the sharing of the Eucharist (Holy Communion). During term time, this service also includes Kura Rātapu for our children.

This service celebrates our Anglican tradition while also embracing contemporary and creative worship forms.

Pārongo

The service comes from Mihingare karakia (Māori Anglican prayers) and is primarily conducted in te reo Māori. An English translation is always available to be inclusive of all reo Māori abilities.

Tamariki - Kura Rātapu

Our Sunday School runs every Sunday (during term time) so your children will have a space to have fun, connect with other tāmariki, and encounter God. See our kids page for more info.

Kapu Tī

After the service, join us for a cup of tea and light refreshments next door in Tātai Hono Marae. We’d love to connect more there.

Papawaka

On Sundays, free parking is available in the carpark surrounding the church and marae.

Pāhotanga Mataora

For those unable to make it in-person, this service is also live-streamed weekly.

I find this church a place of warmth and welcome. It’s not just the beautiful 10:30am service, it’s the cup of tea and kai afterwards, the warm hugs and greetings, the sense of belonging and being seen and accepted.
