Combined Service
On the Sunday after Christmas the 3 Whitby Churches – North Porirua Baptist, St Mary’s Anglican and us, join together for a combined service. This year on Sunday 29 Dec 9.30 am, we are at St Mary’s Anglican Church. We would love for you to join us. Darryl Ward will be looking back to the year that has been and reflecting on the year to come. We’d love you to join us all.

Usually, the children join us at the start of the service, then head downstairs for their own programme, there is a creche available for children under 3 years during the service.
