As of Saturday 21 March 2020, there was a step-change in the New Zealand way of life as a result of our government’s response to the spread of the Covid-19 virus.
All Methodist and Wellington Anglican Diocese church services are suspended. The remaining Dioceses and the Presbyterian Church is giving the same advice from now on.
