We were privileged to share dinner with Kris Paul a student at the School of Theology at the University of the South, Sewanee ,Tennessee while she was visiting Sydney. We wish Kris the very best in her studies and her upcoming ordination into the Episcopal Church.
We gathered on the 2nd July 2023 to participate in the blessing of our new church Cross. Archdeacon Karipa was surrounded by his Bible Discussion Group as we prayed together, acknowledging Christ’s suffering and rising again. Our Cross was gifted by Julie Wharerau, Shane Snowden and Derek Tallon. We are truly blessed.
Our grandparents, especially grandmothers, (Nans) have always had a role of influence on our family life especially actively and deliberately teaching the role of Christian Faith through Jesus Christ.
Thank you to Greg Makutu , QSM, New Zealand Veterans NSW, Archdeacon Kaio Karipa, The Sydney Maori Anglican Fellowship and Matua Sam Rerekura, Kaumatua.
