OUTREACH
Our Outreach committee brings the mission statement of St John’s to life in a practical way.
This means building ongoing relationships with groups and organisations as well as providing specific financial support.
But it’s not about just giving money. Part of what we do is about engaging theologically at a local, national, and international level. Outreach goes both ways; we hope members of our congregation can also grow in faith as we learn about the needs of the city, the country, and the world and how God is at work there.
Our specific activities change from year to year, but in broad terms, we:
provide grants to organisations to help them in their work
organise public forums and lectures with a theological slant
conduct and/or support mission programmes.
Local outreach
Here are some of our Outreach activities in Wellington.
St john’s Cafe
On the first Tuesday of the month, we host a lunch for our friends from the old Dixon Street flats (and any others who wish to come). It’s a time for food and friendships. It was initially set up to help with the isolation that can come from living in a large block of flats.
