Sunday 17th February
Hi neighbours!
From the outside (and sadly, sometimes for those on the inside too), church can look like a bunch of rules to follow. The idea that Christianity is a case of, 'Follow Jesus's rules for a ticket to a good life' is all kinds of wrong. It's about a relationship, about learning to walk through life with Jesus. Not to escape our current existence, but to learn to live in true freedom whatever our circumstances, because we walk with him. Freedom from anxiety, anger, guilt, shame, freedom to live fully.
This Sunday, we start a new series, 'Freedom: Only Jesus' based on the book of Galatians, found in the New Testament section of the Bible. We'd love for you to join us! The coffee, as always, is hot by 10.15am!
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
