Mission Programme
We choose a set of missions to support locally, nationally and internationally. Rather than give small amounts to many organisations, we try to focus our efforts on a smaller set of missions over a three year period.

Local
Orewa Community Christmas Lunch
With other local churches and businesses we contribute to this free lunch in Orewa on Christmas Day for those who would be alone on Christmas Day or unable to provide a celebratory meal. |
National
The Hope Project: It's 200 years since Marsden first preached the Gospel in NZ. The Hope Project aims to tell people something of this wonderful history and what the good news is.
We think Word for Today is a good resource and we contribute towards production costs.

International
The Anglican Missions Board
This is the main mission funding body for Anglicans in this province. It distributes funds to CMS and various mission projects. 
The Bishop of Kondoa, Tanzania
We are excited to be in partnership with Bishop Given as he leads this new diocese in challenging circumstances. This is a song from Kondoa they taught us:
Sema nami. Sema. (Speak to me. Speak.) Sema na moyo wangu. (Speak to my heart.) 
Kailakuri Medical Mission, Bangladesh
Dr Edric Baker devoted his life to providing medical care for the poor. Since his recent death, the local team are still supplying care as per his vision. In Bangladesh, his clinic and hospital is run on a shoestring but provides impressive healthcare to the poorest in society. |
