 Our Parish has a proud history of 170 years of ministry. Our origins define our spiritual DNA, and will determine its future because that's who we really are deep down.  Our Parish’s mission station origin dates back to November 1839. Octavius Hadfield was commissioned by the Church Missionary Society base in the Bay of Islands in response to a request for a missionary by the Tangata Whenua. He did not come to the Kapiti Coast to start a mission but to encourage the existing work of God amongst the Maori living in Waikanae and Otaki.  This section details the beginnings of Christianity on the Kapiti Coast, and a brief biograghy of the first european missionary, Octavious Hadfield, to the Kapiti Coast. |
