Reflections on walking Te Araroa, Aotearoa’s long pathway with Alex Ker
Every journey begins and ends with a single step. On Sunday the 22nd November 2020, Alex embarked on a 132-day, 3000km journey that took him walking from Cape Reinga to Bluff.
Along the way, he was humbled by the ever-changing landscapes he moved through and the endlessly generous people he met. Join Alex as he shares some photos of the trail and reflections on the meaning of adventure, growth and simplicity which he discovered through putting one foot in front of the other.
He will be speaking at the worship service from 10am on Sunday 31st October, at St Ninian’s Uniting Church, Karori.
The service will also be virtually accessible via zoom. All are welcome!

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
