25 years of mainly music
The dancing, the chatting, the cuppas, the playtimes, the giggles and even the occasional tear or two – it’s all been a part of the amazing mainly music journey over the last 25 years at The Anchor. We’ve been so privileged to make this journey with the many, many families of all shapes and sizes who have joined in the fun in our church gym. We’re so looking forward to reconnecting with you again if you have played any part…

His heart of love for both God and us, meant that the news of his decision to retire at the end of 2025, has been sad for us. However, we are extremely grateful to God for the time they have had with us and fully support…
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.
