Helping others this Easter
Do you know folk in your bubble or neighbours who are a bit IT challenged, or who might be in need of a bit of comfort this Easter? Without church services it’s hard for some to be able to be at peace. Just to say could you help them out by reaching out to folk who might want a religious experience this Easter by letting them know that there is a service on every Sunday at 10.00 on Utube or on channel 200 (yes 200) on free to air TV. There is also one today (Good Friday) at 10.00 and then one this Saturday at 7.30pm – called a Chrism service. For the Utube link you go to movementonline.org.nz... These are open to anyone, and are fairly gentle simple services by a husband and wife team in their bubble in Wanganui,. Both are Anglican priests. The services include talks usually by the Wellington Bishops Justin and Eleanor.
It’s been great to see the help people are offering to others, and I hope you will feel able to reach out in this way to help those who are struggling at this time, regardless of any personal beliefs you might have. Thank you and may God Bless you with His love this Easter.

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?
