More changes to ease traffic congestion are planned for Christchurch's new-look Manchester St.

A series of tweaks have already been made after frustrated motorists complained about congestion and delays when the street's $20 million upgrade was completed in October last year.

The first changes have made a difference and complaints have dropped, Christchurch City Council senior traffic engineer Stephen Wright said, but more changes are likely.

Through these tough times we have learned the true strength and resilience of our communities and have witnessed first hand the abundance of aroha in Aotearoa.

Now more than ever, the fern seems to best capture the spirit of our country. If we look to our Māori roots, we are reminded of the twist or pikorua which resembles two intertwined pikopiko ferns - a fern known for thriving in dark, damp areas of our woods. A reminder that difficult conditions can actually be an opportunity for tremendous growth.

The entanglement of the pikorua also has no beginning or end which is often used to represent an everlasting bond. Although we are all on our own path in life, in the end we always come back together - we are all connected through our interwoven lives.

Hi neighbours!


This Sunday, Michael Brown begins our new series, What if our brokenness were a bridge, not a barrier? Might sound like a strange title, but basically, this series will explore the damage that shame and guilt can wreak on us, and how God wants to set us free from those knots to live fully. We'll finish this series looking at the story of The Prodigal Son.


Hope you can join us, as always, the coffee is hot from 10.15am and the gathering goes from 10.30am-12pm!

Aroha and solidarity rang out loud and clear across Christchurch's Hagley Park as tens of thousands attended a vigil to remember those killed in the mosque massacres.

People, sitting on picnic blankets and on chairs, turned to strangers and embraced, others wiped their partners tears and women wore headscarves to show their solidarity.

Speakers stood on a stage meant for the Bryan Adams concert cancelled a week earlier, and in front of them a sea of people sat in absolute silence as the names of the 50 killed were read out by the Linwood mosque Imam Ibrahim Abdul Halim.

At our AGM on 5th April two of our office holders will be stepping down from their positions:

Rob Pieters will no longer be our visual and sound technician although he will continue in his position of Treasurer.

The technical person will need to set up the data projector, if needed, at each meeting, and also the sound system. This is done much easier now that the equipment is all stored in a cupboard in the storeroom right next to our meeting room. Rob will be at most meetings especially at the beginning to aid and assist the person who is prepared to do this important job.

Jan Tedesco will be stepping down as Secretary – this job really needs someone who is computer literate as we contact and communicate with all our speakers by email. The Secretary also posts a notice on Neighbourly each week, organises the Term Programmes to be printed by the Christchurch City Council, sends our Programme to the CWEA and the Bishopdale Community Trust, and of course, takes Minutes at our Committee Meetings and deals with any inwards and outwards communications.

As you can appreciate both these positions are pivotal in the running of our weekly meetings. (Our meetings are held on Friday mornings at Chapel Street Hall, Harewood.) Without them being filled, we won’t be able to carry on.

If you are able and willing to do either of these positions or know of someone who could be, please message me as soon as possible.

Thank you.
