5. Look out for them
Look out for your neighbours this holiday season. Be mindful that Christmas can be a tough time for some older people, especially those who live alone. Small gestures of kindness can make this time much easier for older people who may be lonely.

4. Pop over with a jar of jam or pickles or your favourite recipe.
This will give you a good opportunity to have a chat. Maybe you will learn something about your neighbour that you don’t already know. This social connection can be a great chance to explore traditions and share memories.

It had trees set up with a name card on each of the branches. Upon inquiry, I was told it was an Angel Tree, coordinated by Prison Fellowship New Zealand.
Through this programme, every prisoner in the country is given the opportunity to choose to give a Christmas gift to their child or children.
I asked my seven-year-old son to choose a child for our family to buy a present for. He chose a seven-year-old boy who stated on his card that he hoped for spiderman apparel. Our children all contributed money from their pocket money jars, and we purchased an appropriate $25 gift. We then brought it to church the following Sunday.
I would like to thank Prison Fellowship NZ for coordinating this programme, and all those who generously gave a gift. It means that an extra 4,000 Kiwi children will receive a Christmas present and card with a personal message from their parent this Christmas.
Research indicates that children who maintain a relationship between themselves and their parent have an improved emotional response to their incarceration.
In case you haven't heard, a new destination playground has just opened at the Hamilton Gardens. My wife and I plan to take our children there over the next few days - it looks fantastic.

If you feel an earthquake that lasts for more than a minute or makes it hard to stand up, don’t wait for an official tsunami warning. Move immediately to the nearest high ground or as far inland as you can. Walk or bike if you can. Stay there until you get the all clear.

We are taking buses to the four corners of Auckland to see first hand how communities are to see first-hand how community-led development is happening across the city. Local hosts will introduce participants to projects, approaches, relationships and success factors that grow resilience, that is driven by and works for local people. And then we will take what we learn into a second day of interactive workshops. Activate is the first of its kind in New Zealand - it's going to be great - click on our link for all the details.
