Helping others this Easter
Do you know folk in your bubble or neighbours who are a bit IT challenged, or who might be in need of a bit of comfort this Easter? Without church services it’s hard for some to be able to be at peace. Just to say could you help them out by reaching out to folk who might want a religious experience this Easter by letting them know that there is a service on every Sunday at 10.00 on Utube or on channel 200 (yes 200) on free to air TV. There is also one today (Good Friday) at 10.00 and then one this Saturday at 7.30pm – called a Chrism service. For the Utube link you go to movementonline.org.nz... These are open to anyone, and are fairly gentle simple services by a husband and wife team in their bubble in Wanganui,. Both are Anglican priests. The services include talks usually by the Wellington Bishops Justin and Eleanor.
It’s been great to see the help people are offering to others, and I hope you will feel able to reach out in this way to help those who are struggling at this time, regardless of any personal beliefs you might have. Thank you and may God Bless you with His love this Easter.

Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
