Renewal by the Holy Spirit. BC service

The service was based upon the renewal we can receive via the Holy Spirit. Psalm 51:7-12. Received well by our parish and ourselves who delivered - thank you so much Lord for your Holy Spirit. Our comforter our friend. Our intercessor, our messenger and so much more! Well done BC, the Holy Spirit led you. Be conscious of His Presence always!

Camp Spirit

Camp Spirit. Praise be to God for a successful camp in which we learned about the Holy Spirit and it's many duties and gifts towards us. The BC campers were a refreshing group to be around. Anything that was on offer during camp was an opportunity where all members took no backward step in taking. A real sense of spiritual growth and understanding was evident. King David's Psalm 51 was a story we talked a lot about. Especially where David cries out to the Lord

 Create in me a clean heart oh Lord
And renew a right spirit in me
Cast me not away from thy presence
 Take not thy Holy Spirit from me
Restore unto me the joy of my salvation
And renew a right spirit within me.
 Hopefully our BC members will comment on this post so you get to hear what they personally enjoyed of Camp Spirit. Praise the Lord for the Holy Spirit that helps us to 'Recalculate'. "It's going to take a litte longer...but we'll get there"

Lotu a Tamaiiti 2012



Today we are reminded of the precious gift we have in children. Many happy children, parents, grandparents and families enjoyed the Lotu a Tamaiti at Tamaki PIPC.

It was service that had so many different and valuable messages. I think this has been a year with the least tears from nervous children!  Shows the great job parents and teachers have put into preparing the children for their items today.

Some made us smile, laugh and cry as we received and reflected on their messages. Well done to all our children, teachers, Tama and Tina who prepared another uplifting White Sunday for us all to enjoy and grow from. We hope you had an enjoyable lunch with family and friends. God's blessings be upon us all as we venture into the last few months of the year.

Ia manuia outou matua, ae ola matou le fanau. Ia soifua ona o Iesu.

There will be more video to come, we've posted this early for those of you we can see already wanting to post about today's lotu a tamaiiti.  Well done on being so eager to share the love!
