Newsletter Week Ending 15 August
- Karori Anglican Churches
- KAC ECO CHURCH CARING FOR CREATION Karori Kaitiaki – Kākā If you enjoy planting, caring for our earth, and love meeting like-minded people, then please do join Karori Kaitiaki – Kākā at the following scheduled planting dates: Sun – 22 August, 2pm at Monaghan Reserve Fri – 17 September, 7pm fundraising dinner and AGM at Karori Sports Cafe Sat – 18 September, 9am at Birdwood Reserve Sun – 17 October, 2pm at Birdwood Reserve Sun – 14 November, 2pm at Monaghan Reserve WOULD YOU LIKE A KARORI ANGLICAN CAP? We are thinking of getting some caps printed and want to know how many of you might be interested in purchasing them before we place an order. We thought they would be great to wear when we are out in the community working on mission projects (like with Karori Kaitiaki – cleaning up the environment) and we will also be super sun smart! The cap will be a dark navy blue with our Karori Anglican logo on the front. The cost will be $20 per cap. Could you please let Heidi know ASAP if you are interested in purchasing one (or more) – we need a minimum of 30 to place an order. COMMON GOOD COFFEE Have you been enjoying the coffee after church? We are pleased to advise that Common Good Coffee, which we now use and which has been in production for eight months, has to date raised through sales over $40,000 to support community work in West Bengal India. You can now drink coffee knowing you are doing good! If you would like to order your own coffee for home, head to https://commongoodcoffee.nz/ ‘HOME FOR THE 100TH SHEEP’ REBUILD IN MANILA For the past 20 years good friends of Ruth and Ian, Edna & Kaloi Ranario, have run a well-established orphanage in a slum – where they live. Unfortunately, the orphanage burnt down (by an accidental fire) within 24 hours of our own recent bell tower/vestry fire. Unlike us, they did not have insurance, therefore, our offering this week will be donated towards rebuilding their orphanage. Thank you to those who have already given. If you would like to give online, please make sure you put in the reference field ‘orphanage’. Please note these donations may not be eligible for a tax credit. FACEBOOK AND INSTAGRAM PAGES Te Korōria now has its own Facebook and Instagram page. Please click on the links below, follow them, and invite your friends to follow too. The more people who follow us, the better our communication reach for the new build and fundraising. Te Korōria Instagram Te Korōria Facebook WE NEED YOUR HELP! Do you like offering hospitality? Or have a strong organising bone in your body? We are looking for volunteers to form a Te Korōria hospitality event crew. We will be creating and hosting a few events to communicate to the Karori Community what we are building, why, and seeking their financial support. Please let Kate know if you are interested or have questions. We would really love a large team – makes it more fun for everyone! We have a weekend retreat booked starting Friday, 27 August 2021 at Kopua Monastery, situated on a rural farm near Dannevirke. You are welcome to join the Cistercian Monks for any of the monastic services during the weekend while enjoying the solitude and peace of this sacred place. We have exclusive use of the lovely guesthouse. Interested in joining us on retreat? Contact Stephen 0274-530-000. More information on Kopua Monastery can be found at www.kopuamonastery.org.nz CURSILLO The heart of Cursillo is a 3-day live-in event that presents a specific method for deepening and living out our Christian faith. Cursillo also provides a strong follow-up and support network of both small groups and wider gatherings for mutual encouragement. This year the Men’s Cursillo event is being held at St Matthew’s Collegiate School, Masterton from 7-10 October 2021 and the Women’s event is being held at El Rancho, Waikanae from 14-17 October.

We are pleased to advise that contractors have started repairing the fire damage to the Vestry Room and Bell Tower. We will keep you updated with the progress.
