Return to Ohinemutu
May 2022
This is a quaint little church adorned throughout with significant Maori carvings, on the edge of Lake Rotorua, and adjacent to the Ohinemutu Marae and thermal hot pools [take care].
You may be able to enter the church and see the sandblasted window with Christ walking on the lake, and/or view the whole Church from the outside
We are fortunate to have had several family events inside this Church over 45 years, and are thankful that the clergy and custodians allow this and welcome us back.

An amazing place to visit, of great significance to the Maori people and situated in their village. Famous for its very special window.

Nice little slice of ecclesiatical history
Mar 2020
This is a quaint little church and nice to walk around and think about how the original missionaries must have made headway here in a land of bubbling steam pools. It's peaceful and one of the older buildings, so worth a quick look.

Interesting
Mar 2020
An Anglican church which is an interesting fusion of native and colonial features, There is some elaborate carving and weaving to see as well as some nice stained glass from both traditions.
Entry is free but donations are most certainly requested.
There are some thermal areas around the back near the memorials to native servicemen.

So so lovely
Feb 2020
This is such a lovely church and it is open from 10am to 3pm each day. You just need to give a donation and enjoy. The Maori carving is gorgeous and the window with Christ seemingly walking on Lake Rotorua is gorgeous. The man who opened the church for us was most friendly.

A well spoken host spoke to us about the main features inside the church and the intermixing of Christian and Maori traditions. Unique place to visit.

A must on the shores of Lake Rotorua

Beautiful with a wonderful mix of Anglican and Maori design. Check out the window of Christ in a Maori cloak , it looks like he is walking on the lake.
