Parish and 10am Meetings and Events Coming Up
Parish Council, Thursday 9 April, 7pm. Meeting will be held online
Please Stay Safe
If you are feeling unwell stay away from work, school, church or large gatherings.
Cover coughs or sneezes with disposable tissues (please dispose of them carefully – do not leave lying around) or clothing
Do not shake hands, hug or kiss when greeting or leaving - try a smile, a wave, a small bow.
Wash and dry hands regularly, wash hands using water and soap for 20 seconds then dry your hands thoroughly.
Check on others (use the telephone first).
Be kind to each other.
Office Relocation
While our builders are digging up the concrete pad of the old annex we are relocating the office to the Ecumenical Centre.
While we are set up in the small office, the main front doors will remain locked during the day – please come around the back and entry to the complex will be via the Ecumenical Centre main doors. This includes when visiting a presbyter. The large doors by the hall foyer will be locked. We don’t know how long this will be for but we want to avoid going backwards and forwards for short periods as this is too disruptive.
Please note we have been unable to divert the phone at this point. Please leave a message and Kula will clear it a few times each day.
Financial Contributions
As the end of the financial year (30 June) is fast approaching, this is a friendly reminder to all our members, please keep donations and contributions coming. If you have any issues, please talk to Norbert our Treasurer.
Towel Roster
There won’t be anyone on towel roster, all towels will be washed at the Laundromat.
We welcome any donations to help us with washing of the towels.
Parish Working Bee
A Parish working bee is planned for Saturday the 4th April, 10am—4pm.
We will be doing lots of odd jobs onsite eg: staples from the new hall and chapel walls, cleaning the tables and chairs and spring cleaning the kitchens.
Please mark this on your diary.
Music for Worship Lay Preachers’ Workshop:
The event planned for 21 March 2020 has been postponed.

Thank you for the food that has been contributed every Sunday.
There isn’t any DCM bookfair this year.

Touchstone
The March issue can be found at the rear of the New Hall and at http://www.methodist.org.nz/touchstone.
Combined Gathering for Methodist Women in the Wellington Area
We have not heard if the event planned for 28 March 10am at Waiwhetu Uniting Church has been cancelled.
Please contact the Parish Office for an update.
Seismic Strengthening Newsletter
The February issue of our Seismic Strengthening newsletter is available here, with more information about the seismic strengthening project.
Flower Arrangement
We are also looking for people that may be interested in joining the group that does flower arrangement. The numbers are dwindling but the passion keeps this group going. Please contact the office if you’re keen to join.
2020 Carpark Stickers
It is time to swap over to your 2020 congregation parking stickers. If you do not have one, please talk to Alan Dine.
2020 Roster
The roster for the first quarter of 2020 is available here. This has been sent to everyone on the roster, and a few copies are available at the back of the hall.
If you aren’t coming to church on the Sunday that you are rostered, please sort your own swap and let the office know so we can keep the roster up to date.
Wellington Curtain Bank
The Wellington Curtain Bank is a social service that upcycles preloved curtains & fabric turning them in to made-to-measure curtains for homes that really need them.
And we need your help spreading the word about this awesome service.
The idea is simple. Well fitted, double-layered curtains help keep cold air out and warm air in.
Warmer homes = less housing-related health issues.
How you can help?
Spread the message across your social media channels using the messages below:
- Did you know that if you have a Community Services Card of a SuperGold Combo Card, you could get free double-layered made to measure curtains from the Wellington Curtain Bank? www.sustaintrust.org.nz/free-curtians
- Many homes in NZ are cold, draughty, are difficult and expensive to heat, AND have single-pane windows (not double glazed)
- Good quality made-to-measure quality curtains are expensive
- Double-layered curtains are the easiest way to reduce power bills in a cold home.
- Also since landlords do not have to provide curtains, curtains are something tenants need to seek out themselves.
- And of course, because we upcycle curtains - every set of curtains we provide means less textile waste to landfill.
If you have any questions, please do get in touch with Di on phone 0226810275.
