The St Ninian's Fishing club meets every Wednesday evening at 7:30 pm on Zoom and we have been developing our understanding of how we can be disciples in our community. 🙏

Our Fishing club events are community-facing with a focus on discipleship. Our next event planned focuses on the Season of Creation.

We will be supporting Karori Kaitiaki planting in community spaces on Monaghan Ave. Please bring gardening gloves, a water bottle and a jacket. Also a lopper, spade/shovel and rake. This is a great opportunity to join our community to help care for God's creation. Suitable for all ages. 🪴

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
