Our Journey Across New Zealand - Souls for Christ

Gavin from Browns Bay

Recently we started a journey across New Zealand preaching the Gospel to every town and city for those appointed to salvation. Starting from Auckland to Hamilton our journey started in March 2025 (this year) and we have visited most towns preaching in the streets, parks, shopping malls and churches. It is an amazing journey as we video and document our travels on our blog on our website: www.soulsforchrist.co.nz...

We have seen many miracles and healings, praying for multitudes of people with over 5,500 giving their lives over to Jesus since March this year. We are a mobile outreach made up of 4 volunteers, travelling in two buses and a van from town to town preaching the Good News. When arriving at a new town on our planned journey we will book at a campsite and then sleep in the converted buses overnight. The next day after prayers we will travel into town and find the busiest human footprint (mall, park, city centre) and set up our small gazebo and preach from there. Reaching out to the public for anyone who wants to hear and respond. Many people are so thirsty for Jesus and receive salvation.

We do not belong to a denomination nor a particular church but we have a burning desire to give people the opportunity to return to God. For those that receive Jesus into their hearts and repent of their sins, we refer them to the local churches in that town. On many occasions we make contact with pastors in that town and advise them of new converts coming in. These pastors sometimes will ask us to preach at their churches or share our testimonies when we are there too.

Feel free to follow us on our journey on blog on our website of each town and city visited as we will soon be journeying on to the South Island as we finish up here in Wellington.

Aucklanders, we want to know: How are you feeling about the current property market?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

New Zealand homeowners are now more likely to sell at a loss than at any time since 2013, and if you’re in Auckland or Wellington, the odds are even higher.

But there is a silver lining: buyers are still in a strong position when it comes to negotiating prices.

So we’re curious…
How are you feeling about the current property market?

If you’re keen to dive into the details, Deborah Morris breaks down all the latest insights.

‘Tis the season to not get scammed ...

The Team from New Zealand Police

As Christmas gift shopping moves increasingly online, scammers are ramping up their activity across the country.

Dunedin’s Investigation Support Unit is seeing more and more people fall victim to scams and other fraudulent activity, particularly on Facebook Marketplace.

There are a few ways to avoid the scams and keep yourself safe doing online trades this holiday season, says Southern District Service Delivery Manager Senior Sergeant Dalton.
🔒 “A good first step when looking to purchase something on Marketplace is to check when the seller’s Facebook profile was created. If it’s very recent, there is a higher risk that they have just created this account for a one-off fake item.”
🔒 Another important step is to make sure the seller’s profile name and bank account name match up. “We’re seeing a lot of scammers claiming their bank account name is different because it belongs to their partner or family member - that’s a huge red flag."
🔒 “When you’re selling, never trust a screenshot anyone sends you showing that payment has been made. Check your own bank account to make sure a payment has gone through."
🔒 “Quite frankly, it’s best for all parties to agree to pay, or be paid, for items in cash and in-person. Ideally in a public place with CCTV coverage."
🔒 "If you’re buying a car, check Carjam.co.nz to see if it’s stolen or if there’s money owed on it.”

A reminder: Suspicious activity can be reported on 105
