Outreach

Our Parish prioritizes the last, the least and the lost and so there is a lot that happens on site and in the community to serve the vulnerable of Masterton as we strive to make Jesus’ hope real with loving service…

The church gives to the foodbank in Masterton via giving of items on Sundays or dropping them into the office to be delivered.

Our smaller hall is used 3 days a week for people to drop in for a meal, a shower and wash clothes who may be living rough. It is also used as emergency accommodation for such situations.
