Missions

Mission has been non-negotiable from the very beginning
We have always been committed to looking beyond ourselves and taking the love and hope of Jesus beyond the walls of our church.
Even in those early days meeting in a lounge, the heart of Restoration was outward-facing. Together the group raised funds to help build a well in Zimbabwe, reflecting our belief that the gospel moves us toward both spiritual and practical restoration in the world.
Built in Zimbabwe
Partnership in Zimbabwe
Serving our city
Sharing the hope of Jesus

Within our first six months, we helped build a well in Zimbabwe. We now have an ongoing partnership with a couple in Mondoro, Zimbabwe, who are serving and strengthening their local community.
But mission is not only about reaching people internationally. It is also about noticing what God is doing around us and finding practical ways to serve people, meet needs and share the hope of Jesus here in Ōtautahi and throughout Aotearoa.
We will continue to be a Spirit-led church, listening for where God is calling us and responding with courage and generosity locally, nationally and globally.
