Recently the church removed all pews to accommodate groups wishing to hire our facilities..
To help pay for our new auditorium heating and wonderful new seating, we're holding a garage sale on Sat 1 August, and invite locals to donate saleable items to the garage sale. Please bring goods to the church door at any time before Saturday 1st. This includes, clothing, toys, furnishing, working electrical, books, music, sporting equipment, plants and more... Just not heavy furniture thank you.
We are at 88 The Parade, Island Bay, city end of the shops :)
Our thanks!
Moe mai rā, Nicholas.
We're sad to announce the passing of Nicholas Boyack, our Hutt Valley reporter who has long written for The Dominion Post, The Hutt News and Upper Hutt Leader.
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?
