Vicar's Welcome

Picture
Hi, I'm Ian vicar of St Stephen's.  You may be feeling new here – if so, you are really welcome.  When I started as vicar here over 10 years ago I enjoyed getting to know people; I hope you find it easy and enjoyable too. 

Our desire is to provide an environment where you can come to know people who love Jesus and in time follow his calling and grow to love him too.  We trust you will find a warm welcome, good friendships and fun.  We would aim to support you as you explore some of those bigger issues and questions of life. 

Have a look around the website, perhaps read a sermon or two and then if you are around Whangaparaoa at a service time (Sun 8am, 10am, plus Thurs 10am) why not drop in and see us?  Please make yourself known to me or the greeters at the door. 

We’re glad you’re visiting.  Best wishes,
Ian Hardcastle
