A Christchurch man claims to have captured on film one of three kittens that he thinks were living in the ruins of Christ Church Cathedral with their mother.

Bernard Anderson said he was walking past the earthquake-damaged cathedral in central Christchurch in May when he saw a black cat leave the building followed by three kittens. "She wasn't as well nourished as domestic cats. She was smaller. It seemed quite obvious that they were living in the cathedral."

The kittens were curious about his presence and he was able to photograph one with his cellphone camera, he said. The slightly blurry images show what appears to be a very fluffy black kitten sitting on the pavement.

The derelict cathedral, which has been open to the elements for several years, also provides a home for dozens of pigeons.

Kia ora neighbours,

Hi neighbours!

Matthew 22:37-40 (The Message). Jesus said, “ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your passion & prayer & intelligence.’ This is the most important, the first on any list. But there is a second to set alongside it: ‘Love others as well as you love yourself.’ These two commands are pegs; everything in God’s Law & the Prophets hangs from them.”

At our 10:30am Sunday gathering this week, John Pritchard will speak about the Prayer of Jabez (1 Chronicles 4:10) a prayer asking to be blessed to be a blessing. As always, the coffee is hot from 10.15am - hope you can join us!
