SS. Peter & Paul Church Community
ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION UPDATE
June 28th, 2025 will mark a significant milestone of our Te Awakaiarngi Parish: 175 years since the establishment of the SS. Peter & Paul church, Lower Hutt. We look forward to celebrating together as one parish community of Te Awakairngi and invite you to join us for this special celebration!
We’re excited to share, that planning for our 175th anniversary celebration is now underway! A big thank you to everyone who has responded with ideas and offered to lend a helping hand. Your enthusiasm and contributions are invaluable to making this occasion truly special.
As we prepare to mark this significant milestone, we’re reaching out for your help again. If you have any photos – especially historic ones – of any of the four churches in our Parish, or if you’d like to share a story about a specific event in our church’s history, we’d love to hear from you! Please email your photos and stories to participation@teawakairangi.nz or contact the Parish office.
Your memories and insights will help us create a richer and more meaningful celebration. We can’t wait to share this special occasion with you and look forward to hearing from you! For inspiration and a glimpse into our rich history, complimentary copies of ‘Mission to the River Hutt’ are available in all our churches. Help yourself and let us come together to honour our heritage and celebrate as one Parish community.
