HAERE MAI Sun, sand, surf, the silly season is fast approaching. Welcome to all our new families who have recently joined Maranui. We are looking forward to another fun and busy season and hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Unfortunately, due to water quality the first Junior Surf Carnival of the season at Worser Bay was cancelled last Sunday. But we have the Titahi Bay Carnival coming up on Sunday 18 December. Sunday 11 December - Not to be missed is our FABULOUS FUN last session for Junior Surf for the year and a special appearance by Santa and one of his reindeers. Put it in your calendar now. Always are great FUN day! Lifeguard Sport have Whitehorse #2 on Sunday 11 December, venue TBC. We have the Junior Surf Series #2 Carnival on Sunday 18 December at Titahi Bay. We encourage all Maranui athletes (U8’s and above) to attend carnivals. These are super fun events where athletes test their surf skills against other clubs. Information will be sent in the next week or two. We had three more Patrol Support / Lifeguards pass the exam in late October. Huge Congratulations. See below. Want dinner sorted for one night. Make sure you order a SAMOAN SUPPER to support the Maranui SLSC IRB Race Team Fundraiser. See details below. Ngā mihi.  THE MARANUI WAY Our Purpose is to: Grow people to their potential by providing an INCLUSIVE and SUPPORTIVE environment where people ENJOY what they do, put in maximum EFFORT through a surf environment that is constantly changing and CHALLENGING. VISION: One of New Zealand's premier surf lifesaving clubs providing world class surf lifesaving services and developing leaders and champions. PURPOSE: Provide our community a safe surf and beach environment. OUR CORE VALUES: Community, Excellence, Fun, Respect, and Tradition.  HAERE MAI What a great start to the season. 3 sessions and the weather has played ball. Although Mother Nature, more specifically water quality have set new challenges our coaches, kids and parents have all adapted well to sessions. A few people have asked about our sessions when water quality is deemed unsafe to swim. For those at Sundays session I explained we will run sessions when Land, Air, Water, Aotearoa (LAWA) deem the water quality unsuitable for swimming with a modified programme that mitigated risk and reduces our participants time in the water at a depth where they are at risk of ingesting water. If on days where water quality is poor you as a parent don’t feel comfortable with you child in the water feel free to miss those sessions. We want the kids & parents to have fun & feel safe. Our sport relies on volunteers and at the moment we are in a transitional phase and find our selves in a position where we need more coaches and officials. If you are keen to get involved please do catch me for a chat. Is coaching for you? Are you enthusiastic, fun and like helping our youngsters grow in sport? Are you keen to get out learn some new skills and share these all the while having fun on the beach and working with a dedicated group of coaches who want to help our kids grow in the sport? If you answer yes then coaching is for you!! What next? Let me or Rhys know, arrive at the next Sunday session in a wetsuit and shadow one of the coaches. Jump on the next coaching course (date TBC) Is Officiating for you? Do you enjoy helping our athletes learn how to enjoy competitions in a fun and nurturing environment. Are you organised & willing to work with technology in an ever changing environment? Do you enjoy endless yummy food while watching our athletes give 100%. If you answered yes then Officiating is for you!! What next? Sign up to Surf Life Saving NZ https://webportal.surflifesaving.org.nz/new-membership/. From here you can access the members portal and do the on line learning. Once you have completed that let me know and at the next carnival we can arrange for you to jump in and shadow one of our amazing officials. From Thursday 1st December I will be running board skill upskill sessions (advertised initially as Wednesday but circumstances changed). This is open to all U9-U14 who just want more time on the boards, learning the more technical parts of paddling. Pre-requisite is having the 200m badge. Please register interest at - https://forms.gle/UU43nrCsnptBmRSe8 Sunday 27th November there was the Worser Bay Carnival. Unfortunately the Carnival was cancelled due to water quality issues. We will be back on Sunday 4th December for more surf fun! Cheers Lucy Barry Director Junior Surf Development  SURF LIFEGUARD AWARD - Maranui's newest Patrol Support/lifeguards Three more successful Patrol Support/Lifeguards for Maranui passed the exam in late October. The exam was long, with lots of candidates, rough water and big lateral tow. We were very happy to see Abi emerge from the ocean successful. Big congratulations to (Above L to R) Dave, Abi and Greta.  JOIN THE SLSNZ DATABASE All Maranui financial members need to be registered online through Surf Life Saving New Zealand (SLSNZ).

The objective is to build a solid foundation of knowledge before starting your Surf Lifeguard Award (SLA) course at 14yrs. You will be doing practical and theory sessions alternating with nippers sessions to keep up the fitness. There will be no more Sundays cancelled due to bad weather for the U13 & U14s. We have so much to learn and so little time - so let's get started learning 'How to Lifeguard'!! Carrie Matson Speirs Maranui SLS Head Instructor  JUNIOR SURF SESSIONS Please arrive in togs and wetsuit ready to go. Please arrive at least 20 minutes prior to the session starting. Parents leave plenty of time to ensure you find a park. All members must sign-in with the sign-in crew in the clubhouse. ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP SUBSCRIPTION Invoices for subs and donations have been sent out by Patricia Kelly (Maranui SLSC accounts) and are due. Subs are an important part of the viability of the club and your prompt payment of the invoice will be contributing to the success of the club. If you have any queries please contact Patricia Kelly (Maranui Finance Manager) - accounts@maranui.co.nz  PARENTS / CAREGIVERS IN THE WATER U7 AGE GROUP is an age which, at our beach with its variable wave height and harsh conditions, is unable to be left to just the coaches and lifeguards. U7 athletes require a parent/caregiver to be in the water with them at all times. U8 - U9 AGE GROUP we ideally would like a parent/caregiver in the water or water edge ready to enter if required, If your child requires extra assistance in the water, please enter the water with them, rather than assuming our volunteers will be able to look after them. Please note: Our club relies heavily on the active involvement of parents, the club cannot function without people volunteering. Kids love to see their parents/caregivers interacting at the club. Parent/Caregivers participation is encouraged in the water at all ages. This is a great way for parents to be actively involved, it’s a great way to increase your own water confidence and have FUN. The more adults we have in the water the better. If you are not a competent swimmer, there is always a need for people to remain in the shallows to help retrieve boards and ensure children exit safely, providing close and constant supervision of our young athletes in the water.

Following your Dreams (even if your dream is to be a dinosaur) - Rose Northey
- 9 Nov 2022
- Black Coffee
- <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > This dinosaur art and poetry exhibition is based on the comedy performance poem, Prehistoric Dreams. It follows the adult life of Mitchell Cunningham, who decided at a very young age that he would be a dinosaur when he grew up. However adult life is tricky without opposable thumbs or the ability to fit through doorways. All dinosaur sketches were checked by local dinosaur nerd and biologist, Dr. Michael Michael. So there is some hope that all 17 species of dinosaur depicted are not embarrassingly inaccurate. This means FEATHERS (where appropriate).

- RASING THE STANDARD OF GIVING <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > ‘Raising the standard of giving’ – describes the thoughtful re-examination of our giving as an important expression for our faith. We give meaningfully, not because the Church needs it (it does, of course) but because as Christians we need to give it for our own sake spiritually. Our giving connected to our: Discipleship Shared mission and vision Expression of generosity in proportion to our means. Together we are encouraging one another to think about our values, to examine or re-examine our giving habits accordingly, to make carefully thought-out decisions, and to re-arrange our priorities in using money to enable us to carry out these decisions. Money is a real responsibility. The more we have of it, the greater our responsibility. The place we give it in our lives, the purposes to which we put it, are very relevant to our Christian life. Our attitude to money and possessions provides a practical test of our love of God and for others. Often our money may be taken as a yardstick measuring the value we put upon our beliefs. Our attitudes to money, the place we give it in our lives, provide a telling clue to our Christian character. What is ‘token giving’? Giving is not primarily token by the size of the gift, but by its relationship to the financial means of the giver and how it relates to her/his intention in making it. What about ‘sacrificial giving’? Graham Redding recently wrote: “Has the concept of sacrificial giving had its day? For as long as people deem the act of giving to be an integral part of their sense of vocation, then the answer to that question must be no. What is freely and abundantly given, even at a sacrificial level, can be a joy, not a burden.”1 Sacrificial giving is best understood as generous enough to involve substantial cost, and so has real meaning to the giver. It brings to the giver a sense of fulfilment - of responsibilities faced and met. It comes only after careful thought, realisation of the issues involved, prayer and the planning that makes such a gift practicable. It makes a significant impression on the giver’s spiritual life because it brings into sharp focus the importance of spiritual values in life. So, as we move forward on the journey of faith together, let us re-examination our giving as we put our faith into action every day. [1] ‘Time to talk about responsible rather than sacrificial giving?’ Graham Redding, Otago Daily Times, 29th April 2022. https://www.odt.co.nz/opinion/time-talk-about-responsible-rather-sacrificial-giving LUMINARY Luminary is a sculptural installation by artist Auckland Karen Sewell which was installed in St John’s chapel from 29 July to 7 August this year, having earlier been shown as part of the collateral projects programme of the Venice Biennale 2022 in Italy and in Auckland, Dunedin and Christchurch. It explored the metaphor of light and light giving bodies and was an effort to revive the long-standing tradition of placing art in churches, in this case with contemporary art. It involved a large sphere illuminated in white and gold light high in the ceiling of the chapel, accompanied by a display of lumen prints, showing another aspect of light. We saw it as more than that. While providing an opportunity for people to reflect on creation and light, it was also an opportunity for St John’s to connect with the wider community and tell people about our own historic building, with its own art works of high interest such as our stained-glass window of the Good Samaritan on our north wall or Christ’s last supper, shown in the chapel. It worked well. With support from the Congregation contributing to expenses and volunteers helping to open Church, more than 300 people saw the work, including more than 200 from beyond the Congregation. Some stayed for up to half an hour and engaged well about St Johns and what we do on site. A good range of people showed interest, including many students and younger people, some who just wanted to see inside the Church which is normally not open. The sale of Karen Sewell’s donated artworks raised $207 for DCM’s work with the homeless too. A big thank you to all who helped, including to show us some other ways to connect with our community, as we want to fulfil our vision for St John’s. See the video production of the installation at St John’s in the city https://www.luminaryvenice.com/luminary-wellington-video See more at www.luminaryvenice.com David Galt <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > CHURCH CAMP 2022 This month saw our church whānau join together at Forest Lakes campground for Church Camp 2022. We were treated to lovely spring weather, a plethora of activities, and meaningful worship sessions all packed into just 2 nights! <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > Arriving on Friday night, we quickly stowed our things in our cabins, then started camp right with icebreaker games, and a session in the chapel. We got to sing along with the combined worship band and hear more about our theme of “Journeying together”. It felt apt knowing that not only had we all journeyed to Otaki to be together, but we’ve all been on our own journeys through COVID and a rapidly changing world. Games and movies and supper sufficiently tired us all out ready for what we hoped would be a good nights’ sleep in cold cabins. Saturday dawned bright and the whole day stretched before us. After breakfast it was time to welcome our day campers and get stuck into more worship. Truly, guitars and clapping and singing - such a great way to wake up! Then came a life auction; working together in multi-generational teams and trying to build a meaningful life on a (imaginary) budget created rich conversations for sure. Being a part of a ‘poorer’ group really did make our group focus on just a few, top priority qualities that make a huge difference to a good life. Digesting this while hearing more stories of people on a journey brought home how lucky we are, and how we can keep going towards more. Free time in the sun followed our time together, with kayaking, golfing, archery and more. Kids entertained and happy campers mingling together and chatting through life with smiles beaming. <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > After more games and then dinner, it was time for the long-awaited camp concert. What talent our church whānau possesses! From dancing to singing to karate to hose trumpets, it all ended with a blow out youth band jam session. What do you do when you’re alone in an elevator?? And of course, camp wouldn’t be complete without the bonfire. We saw roaring flames, gooey marshmallows, and warmth all on a beautifully still night. A perfect chance to be real, and engage with one another. <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > Sunday morning worship and we tied together our journeying theme of the weekend. All tied together like a fairy tale.Church camp had been just another casualty of the COVID cancellation era last year, and it was fantastic that we got to pick it up and revive it for this year. It seemed extra rewarding that it came following a big time of post-pandemic change and busy-ness in our lives. A huge thanks to the team of volunteers who helped plan and organise to get it going, and to all those that helped while we were there to keep things running smoothly for us all. God is definitely close when we’re moving towards Him together. Amanda Fitch A FUTURE IN THE CITY In 1853 St John’s was surrounded by paddocks, on the fringe of a new settlement town. Down the road was Te Aro Pa, and in and around Dixon St were ramshackle shanty buildings and an abattoir. Muddy roads, typhoid outbreaks and a British immigrant population were seeking a new beginning having bought land from the unscrupulous NZ Company. Meanwhile Tangata Whenua hailing from Taranaki Whanui and Te Ati Awa were slowly being disenfranchised from their land. The history of Wellington’s settlement is far from pretty. By 1893 women had the vote and there was a strong movement for social improvement. As expressed in the NZ Presbyterian magazine the ‘Christian Outlook’, the place of cities, their influence, the call to be a part of the social fabric and be Christ ‘where you are’ was strong. To ‘Make that one corner, room, house, office as like heaven as you can.’… to “Beautify it, ventilate it, drain it.’… Educate it, Amuse it, Church it. Christianise capital; dignify labour.’’ In 1895, the church was calling members to get involved in the nitty gritty and dirty parts of life, to use their capital for good. To be involved in the hard stuff, to engage in social issues and matters of justice. Not to sit back and watch, but to “Join councils and committees. Provide for the poor, the sick, and the widow. So will you serve the city." This is the whakapapa of St Johns – In the City. Fast forward to 2022. 169 years later we are asking ourselves once again, what does it mean to be part of the City? How do we be Christ’s hands and feet amongst the high-rises, the apartments, and the shadows of the City where loneliness is common? How do we provide a place of restoration in a world of hard tarmac and where open spaces are rare? How do we meaningfully share the knowledge of a loving, hope-filled God to a understandably cynical generation, who have heard more about the damage meted out by religious authority, and never had firsthand experience of the church as a loving, accepting and generous community? This is what we have been grappling with for the last year. We’ve been asking ourselves what is our future? Who do we need to be for a new generation? How do we demonstrate Christ’s message of love, hope and create a place where people feel they belong and can find respite, in order to recharge for whatever life throws at them?After much deliberation, prayerful, presbyterian debate and discussion, we agreed the following statement captured our Vision for the future:We explore and share the gospel with our dynamic neighbourhood. We create safe spaces to be, to belong, and to navigate the tough stuff. Getting to know God is a team sport – that’s why we do this together, not alone. <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > The Pohutukawa tree represents our community, our hopes and aspirations – with strong roots in God’s love building faith together, a trunk with many strands that is a place of acceptance and belonging, reaching out our branches in many diverse ways to connect with the dynamic community that surrounds our site and explore the Gospel together.Quickly moving onto Actions, we have tried to put legs on good intentions, and turn theory into practical actions providing a renewed sense of community purpose post-COVID.

Tether

- Black Coffee
- <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > This collection of abstract works explore the common thread that runs through the human experience and into the natural world. With contrasting tones, botanical and native New Zealand plant illustrations, the thread we all share returns to the earth to be reformed again and again. My journey with mental health almost always finds its way into my art practice, where I predominantly explore expressions of the 'self' and consciousness. Painting and illustration have been my preferred medium throughout the years, and my use of abstraction allows the viewer the opportunity of "tethering" their own journey to each piece.
