Te Horo – St Margarets (4pm Community Church service), 38 School Road Te Horo.

St Margaret's is a very beautiful church, with amazing facilities for children. Our dream is a community-style church, one that serves the whole community (not just those from an Anglican tradition).
We restarted on May 18th at 4 pm. Our worship service on September 21 had 23 adults and four children ( this was our best-attended gathering to date).

Gradon writes….My hope as the minister responsible for St Margaret’s Te Horo in 2025 is to get worship happening again in this beautiful church. It is one of the nicest churches I have been in and you can feel a sense of God’s presence there because of all the worship and prayer there over the past 100 years. We have people from all traditions worshipping with us, Catholics, Salvation Army, Anglican, Pentecostal and everything in between.

One of our newest worshippers wrote this  “The Sunday afternoon worship is a lovely cosy space for all people to gather and praise 🙏🏼 Ive only just returned to the church after almost a life time (to me) and the congregation has been so welcoming and loving ” Josh

It has a hall behind the church called St Annes ( a previous historic church) with an amazing children’s playground that is used on Fridays by the local play centre – the only regular user.

If you are keen to come we start at 4pm.  All welcome – St Margaret’s is for everyone.
