Thought For The Week 1st October
Politics can be brutal! The largest party by a country mile doesn’t have the numbers to govern alone. Parties that once had a place in parliament have been pushed aside. Things said and done on the campaign trail will linger like fog around the negotiating tables. An impatient media want to know who is forming…
Thought For The Week 24 September
Phew! The election is over – time for the negotiations to begin to form a government. (Note: I’m writing this on Thursday prior to the election so am assuming no clear winner which is so often the case). It’s certainly been an enlivened election campaign. Last Saturday we held our annual spring plant sale at…
Thought For The Week September 17
Once again it is election season. Once again we have parties and candidates selling us their vision of a better New Zealand and a better world. Each one will assure you that they have the only right and true answer to our woes. Each one will assure you that the other lot are misguided and…

Thought For The Week 3, September
One of the things that never ceases to amaze me is the love and care that so many people put into our church. Whether we’re like Mary, sitting at the feet of Jesus, or like Martha, hard at work in the kitchen, our efforts contribute so much to the life of the church, and to…
Thought For The Week 27 August
Whatever your political persuasion is there can be little doubt that this election season suddenly became very interesting with the resignation of various leaders. National looked like they were sleep walking into this election but have been jolted awake by the “Jacinda effect”; the Greens mis-calculated the effect their co-leader’s discloser of benefit and election…
Thought Fot The Week 20th August
On the good news front this week, it is encouraging to see work progressing on our buildings. The painters have been at work at Trinity Hall, and the insulation has been going in at St Stephens. The new chairs for St Stephens have arrived in the country. As I write this we…
