Te Karaiti Te Pou Herenga Waka was built by our Mangere church community in 1979 with immense aroha, creating a unique sacred space of worship through a Tikanga Māori lens. Our name means Christ the Reconciler, acknowledging how we are reconciled to God and each other through Christ.​

​​

We are a parish within Te Pihopatanga o Te Tai Tokerau, part of the Māori Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand, and Polynesia. Our roots trace back to early Māori missionaries and their connection with Tangata Tiriti.

​

We welcome you to join us at our reflective 476 service at 9:30 am with Rev'd Moana Knight or our contemporary service, Koringarau, at 11 am, with Rev'd Sela Havili and Rev'd Keri-Ann Hokianga, who infuse modern elements into their karakia while still honouring our Mihingare whakapapa.​
