We’re a warm, vibrant Christian community in the Wellington suburb of Ngaio. We meet for worship at 10am on Sunday and so much more during the week.
Our Services
Our Sunday morning gatherings remind us of God’s great love for us and for the world. Our time together is what grounds us as a community.
Sunday Service
10am at 3 Kenya Street, Ngaio
Sunday mornings at Ngaio Union are thoughtful, worshipful, and relevant. You can expect preaching that engages with Scripture and with what’s happening in the world, prayers that come from the people in our community, and lots of singing that tends to be a little more traditional. We celebrate Communion on the 1st Sunday of the month.
Kids’ Church
Your tamariki and mokopuna are welcome at Ngaio Union. The service starts with everyone together before kids aged 3-12 head off to Kids’ Church for age-specific teaching and activities.
