Victory Kea Kids is a creative, faith-filled outreach for children and families in Nelson’s Victory community. With growing numbers, joyful service, and intergenerational volunteers, it's a place where tamariki can belong, grow, and shine for Jesus.
Rev. Gordon Taylor shares how St John’s Hira launched into outreach with a Mad Hatters Tea Party—an afternoon of cake, hats, ukuleles, and connection. Part of the Haere Mai initiative, the event brought joy to the community.
Young people in Aotearoa face immense challenges, and the church is uniting to pray! Rev. Lorna Gray shares the heart behind the First Third Prayer Initiative and why intergenerational prayer is crucial. Join the 40 Days of Prayer this Lent!
