St Andrew’s Church

Nau Mai, Haere Mai – Welcome!

One of the two who heard John speak and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother. He first found his brother Simon and said to him, “We have found the Messiah.”
(John 1.40-41)

The first thing Andrew does after meeting Jesus is bring his brother to meet him. The next time we meet Andrew in the Gospel account, he brings a little boy with loaves and fishes to meet Jesus. Then a few chapters later, it’s some curious Greeks.
Andrew knew that he had received a gift like no other. He recognised Jesus as the Messiah; the promised one his people had been waiting for. This was the Good News, and he wanted to share it not just with his family but the whole community.

And we want to share it with you.

WEATHER UPDATE 11 APRIL 2026

Greetings everyone,
We are conscious of the approaching cyclone and keeping a close eye on the weather. Your safety is paramount.
Therefore, after discussions within Vestry we are proposing caution.
At this time we are still planning to offer 8am and 10am services, but urge you to prioritise your safety. Do not travel if you feel at risk.
Please remember that you can always access our Youtube channel and follow our 10am service online.
Please keep an eye on the weather reports and on our website for any updates. If the weather warning changes to RED, we will cancel services.
Finally, if you know anyone who is not on email/internet, please could you contact them and let them know.
With prayers for you and all those affected by the cyclone,
Stephen and Vestry.

Thank you to everyone for your engagement throughout Holy Week. Our worship has been strengthened by your unique contribution. We pray that this has led to a new revelation of our Risen God that has blessed and encouraged you. Ngaa mihi nui.
