Waipiro.
Vicar: Rev. J. Pigott,
At the request of the Poverty Bay Clerical Association this district took the first half-day of the continuous Intercession between Ascension Day and Whit Sunday. We started with 13 communicants at a celebration of the Holy Communion at 7 o'clock m St. Mary's Church, Tokomaru Bay. The St. Andrew's congregation were responsible for an hour and a-half m their church, and the Waipiro Bay people for one hour m the Waipiro church.
An effort is to be made to have an evening service m the Te Araroa church once a month, followed by a celebration of the Holy Communion on the Monday morning at 7.30. The Te Araroa church people are attending to the lights, as unfortunately the electric power is no longer available.
Local church committees are being formed m various centres. The orie at Waima has done very useful work for some years. Kahukara has now jrpt one m working order and doing -useful work. "We, trust Te Araroa and other centres will soon do the same.
