Hi neighbours!

Matthew 22:37-40 (The Message). Jesus said, “ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your passion & prayer & intelligence.’ This is the most important, the first on any list. But there is a second to set alongside it: ‘Love others as well as you love yourself.’ These two commands are pegs; everything in God’s Law & the Prophets hangs from them.”

At our 10:30am Sunday gathering this week, John Pritchard will speak about the Prayer of Jabez (1 Chronicles 4:10) a prayer asking to be blessed to be a blessing. As always, the coffee is hot from 10.15am - hope you can join us!

Hi neighbours,

Are you going out of your way to collect plastic bags before they become illegal in NZ? Some Kiwis have admitted they are stockpiling bags before they can no longer get them from supermarkets and petrol stations.

It's been noticed that some customers have been taking plastic bags for things like single chocolate bars and drinks "to save up".

Do you find plastic bags handy for bin liners? What eco-friendly tips and alternatives to plastic can you share with your neighbours? Leave a reply to share your thoughts.

Poll: Would you let the grass and weeds in your local parks grow to feed and home pollinators?

But actually a neat and tidy green lawn is a food desert for pollinators, and leaving grass unmown and letting so-called weeds like clover and dandelion flower provides food for bees and helps support biodiversity. Would you be happy if your local authority let the grass in your local parks grow long and allowed weeds to flourish?
