Kua tae ki te wa Kirihimete - Christmas has arrived

Welcome to this website of the Anglican parish of Pauatahanui, just north of Wellington City in New Zealand. We are a diverse parish drawing together people in 10 congregations who serve their neighbours in five villages and from four different churches.

St Andrew's at Plimmerton has been buzzing with children - first of all at 3SA on Sunday 18th, then the Spirit of Christmas on Thursday when we had an awesome morning with the children.  There were crafts, facepainting and Shadow the storyteller.  Then there was the Christmas Eve families service with lots of shepherds, angels and kings.

You will find much else going on around the parish as you explore our website. Most of all we pray that you will experience something of our vision of becoming "Deeper in Christ, deeper in community, deeper in belonging and deeper in compassion".

May God bless you.
