Flooded
footpath
drains Ray’s
will to fight
• By Matt Slaughter
CASEBROOK’S RAY O’Rourke
is fed up with waiting on the city
council to fix a sunken footpath.
Mr O’Rourke lives on Brogar
Pl and said he has been fighting
the city council for nearly two
years to get the uneven footpath
in Sisson Park opposite his
house fixed.
The damage to the footpath
covers about 20m, with Mr
O’Rourke saying it is almost
unusable in bad weather.
“The footpath through there
has sunk lower than the grass.
When it rains you almost need
gumboots to get through it.”
Mr O’Rourke said he was
frustrated that two years of
emailing and calling the city
council about the issue has not
led to any action.

PostShops

sought
• By Matt Slaughter
NEW ZEALAND Post
is closing its Papanui and
Merivale PostShops next year.
The Papanui PostShop at 37
Main North Rd is set to close
on February 1, followed by the
Merivale facility at 183 Papanui
Rd in June.
A New Zealand Post
spokesperson said the closures
were the result of a decline in
the amount of mail being sent
and received, with 63,000,000
fewer items nationally being
sent compared to the last
financial year.
New Zealand Post said it
plans to open new branches
in Papanui and Merivale in the
premises of local businesses in
the area, but it did not know
where or when this would be.
“We are actively looking for
businesses to partner with. We
don’t have a time frame on how
long this search will take. The
most important thing for New
Zealand Post is to find the most
suitable businesses to work
with.”
Some say the move will prove
a major inconvenience for
residents and other post offices
in the north-west.

GOOD ON Ray O’Rourke for not giving
up on his battle against the city council (see
page 1).
Ray has been fighting the bureaucrats
for two years to get a small bit of his
neighbourhood fixed.
In terms of jobs, it’s probably just a drop in the bucket when it
comes to city council priorities.
But it is these relatively minor things that don’t get done which
irritate people. After all it’s the Rays of this world who pay their
rates to keep the city running.
There is a glimmer of hope though. Ray’s determination may
finally have paid off.
The city council has indicated it will have the pathway repaired
by midway through next year.
You’ll need more patience Ray.

Board outlines aims for next year
Dealing with
traffic increase
major priority
• By Matt Slaughter
THE PAPANUI-Innes
Community Board says water
issues, traffic management and
community spaces will be its
main priorities next year.
At the top of the list is
ensuring plans are in place to
manage the increase in traffic
flow once the Northern Corridor
project has been
completed.
Community
board member
Jo Byrne said
the Northern
Corridor was
Jo Byrne
expected to bring
an extra 20,000-
30,000 vehicles
along Cranford St and through
suburbs in the north-west.
Ms Byrne said ensuring
residents and road-users in
Papanui-Innes are safe is one of
her biggest challengers heading
into the new year.
Papanui-Innes city councillor
Mike Davidson said it was
important to “make sure
everything’s done to mitigate
traffic effects” from the
Northern Corridor.
Cr Davidson said he also
wants to see ongoing issues
with parking options in
Papanui addressed to open
up access to new shops and
businesses which continue to be
developed in the area.
Cr Davidson said concerns
with chlorine in Papanui’s water
is also at the forefront of his
mind. “We’re trying to push
as hard as we can to get the
chlorine out of the water.”
The creation of more spaces
for the community to use is also
a goal for 2019.
ISSUES:
Managing the
increase in traffic
from the Northern
Corridor will be a
priority next year
for the Papanui-
Innes Community
Board.
Ms Byrne said she wanted
to see the plans for the
construction of the Edgeware
Pool gain enough funding to
become a reality.
Cr Davidson said the most
urgent need is to find a new
home and business partner for
the Papanui PostShop, which
will close in February.

Premises for PostShops sought
•From page 1
Papanui-Innes Ward city
councillor Mike Davidson said the
closure of the Papanui branch was
“very concerning,” given the lack of
certainty around the time frame and
location for opening a new branch in
the area.
“Surely they should have had a new
one running before they decided to
close the current
one.”
Cr Davidson said
his preferred option
would be for New
Zealand Post to
partner with the city
council to open a new
Simon
Templeton
shop in the Papanui
Service Centre.
Age Concern chief
executive Simon Templeton said the
closures would have a “social cost”
for older Papanui residents who still
visit PostShops to carry out their daily
business.
“A lot of people go in and pay their
bills on a monthly basis.”
New Zealand Post said the post
office boxes in Papanui would remain,
but could not confirm the future of the
Merivale boxes.
CLOSING: The Merivale PostShop
on the corner of Papanui and
Office Rds and the Papanui
PostShop on Main North Rd will
close next year.

Backlash over Riccarton Rd tree plan
• By Anan Zaki
A LACK of options during
consultation has been blamed for
the backlash over putting trees
down the middle of Riccarton
Rd.
That’s the view of Riccarton
Bush and Kilmarnock Residents’
Association secretary Bob
Broughton.
Earlier
this month,
Western News
reported
that central
Riccarton
residents
were against
Bob
Broughton
the idea of a
median with
27 columnar
hornbeam trees on Riccarton Rd
between Clarence and Matipo
Sts.
Readers rejected the idea in
more than 70 responses to the
article in Western News.
Mr Broughton said when
the city council consulted with
residents over the changes to
Riccarton Rd in 2015, it didn’t
give an option for a median that
was not lined with trees.
Residents were given two
options: Option A with a treelined
median to “strengthen the
GREENERY: The city council plans to plant 27 columnar hornbeam trees on Riccarton Rd, on
the median between Matipo and Clarence Sts.
character” of the busy Riccarton
Rd shopping area between
Clarence and Matipo Sts, which
was selected.
Option B was for trees on
a widened footpath, with no
mention of a median.
Out of 194 submissions,
98 preferred option A and 96
favoured option B, the city
council said.
Mr Broughton took part in the
consultation and said residents
wanted a median to separate the
traffic, but were against the idea
of trees along the middle of the
road.
If there was an option for
a median without trees, Mr
Broughton believes the outcome
of the consultation would have
been different.
Said city council manager
planning and delivery transport
Lynette Ellis: “The trees in
conjunction with the other
streetscape enhancements,
such as new furniture, paving
and landscaping, provide an
improved and renewed sense
of place to the identity of
central Riccarton as a
destination rather than solely as
a transport corridor. A median
with no trees would not have
provided the same benefits,” she
said.
The upgrade of Riccarton Rd
between Matipo and Harakeke
Sts will start in February. It is
expected to be completed by
December 2020.

Battle to fix footpath
•From page 1
Mr O’Rourke said his
frustration increased after
the city council recently fixed
another footpath opposite his
house.
“They need to get their
priorities right. I’ve thought
about giving up at times, but . . .
I’m battling on.”
His wait to have the footpath
fixed may be over in June.
Papanui Ward city councillor
Mike Davidson said he was on
Mr O’Rourke’s side and had
been pushing the city council to
get the path fixed by the end of
the year.
However, Cr Davidson
said he was told this was not
possible because the project had
fallen at the “tail end” of the
city council’s programme of
works for the year.
A LONG-SERVING Wainoni
Avonside Community Services
Trust member has been
recognised for her volunteer
work.
Mairehau’s Coleen Dunlop,
89, was presented with a Civic
Award for community service
by Mayor Lianne Dalziel on
Wednesday.
He said it had since reached
a consensus on the issue, with
the footpath expected to be
completed by June.
But Cr Davidson said this had
not happened “as quickly as I
would have liked.”
Mr O’Rourke said he was yet
again disappointed with the
city council’s response, given
that an email he received in
March said the repairs could be
completed by July this year.
“It’s just been promises,
promises and seems to be going
nowhere.”
Mr Davidson praised Mr
O’Rourke for his persistence
with the city council, saying
people like him are the reason
things get done.
“A lot of people will just put
up with these issues and that
shouldn’t have to happen.”

She was one of 12 to receive
the award at the Great Hall at the

Mrs Dunlop has been volunteering

$1110 Christmas cake part
of Gerry’s video series
• By Matt Slaughter
ILAM MP Gerry Brownlee has
proven that a career as a celebrity
chef may be an option if politics
ever falls through.
In his latest series of Facebook
videos, Mr Brownlee showcased
his baking skills and a more laidback
side of his personality.
Mr Brownlee raised $1110
for the Salvation Army after
releasing a series of videos
showing Facebook viewers how
to make the perfect Christmas
cake and auctioning the cake on
Trade Me.
The donation was made as a
tribute to former Lieutenant-
Colonel and Salvation Army
worker Peter Savage, who died
last year.
Mr Brownlee said he did not
want to comment on his good
deed, in spite of receiving a large
response from viewers, simply
saying his reasons for doing it
were “pretty self-explanatory.”
The videos have received
34,600 Facebook views, with the
cake’s Trade Me auction being
viewed 21,000 times before
the sale. Mr Brownlee said in
a previous statement that Mr
Savage “epitomised for me the
Christmas message of peace
and goodwill to all.”
He wanted to do what he could
“to raise a few dollars for the
Salvation Army to help them
with some of the extra things
they do around Christmas time.”
Mr Brownlee’s cake baking
videos were also released as part
of a new push to connect with his
social media audience.

a great way to connect with a

Fishing hook fatal for dog
Warning to
watch out for
beach anglers
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A DOG has died after
swallowing a longline fishing
hook at Waimairi beach.
It has prompted the dog’s
owners to warn other beachgoers
to be wary of longline
fishing devices being used in
busy areas.
Belfast couple Hilary and
Andy Ashby said they are
“devastated” after their 11-yearold
poodle, Sooty, had to be
euthanised when a 3cm hook
became lodged in his throat at
Waimairi beach.
Mrs Ashby was on a morning
walk with her sister-in-law
and their dogs at 10.30am on
December 8 when the incident
unfolded.
She said she was walking
towards the North Beach Surf
Lifesaving Club when she saw
an Asian family rolling out a
longline fishing device on the
shore.
Sooty smelled the bait and bit
into the fish attached to one of
OPTION ONE
BEAUTIFUL: Sooty died when a 3cm hook became lodged in
his throat at Waimairi beach.
the hooks.
Mrs Ashby said her dog
“panicked” and was pulling at
the line. She asked the woman
controlling the line for scissors
who called out to her husband to
get a pair.
“He took quite a while to
come. He cut the line . . . at this
stage Sooty was frothing at the
mouth,” she said.
Meanwhile, Mrs Ashby was
juggling trying to get her other
dog, Axel, onto a lead to ensure
he didn’t suffer the same fate.
Sooty was then taken to Pet
Doctors Marshall and Pringle
in Phillipstown where he spent
10 hours on the operating table
before he was taken to the After
Hours Vet.
Mrs Ashby said the hook
punctured Sooty’s esophagus
and the vet had to cut into his
throat to get the hook out.
It is suspected Sooty suffered a
stroke from the stress.
The next morning, Mrs Ashby
was told the treatment was
not going well and made the
decision to have Sooty put
down.
The operation cost about
$3800. “You don’t mind paying
for your loved animal when you
get them back but when you’re
left with nothing and not a little
dog you love, it is very hard,”
Mrs Ashby said.
Mr Ashby said he had no
problem with longline fishing
devices but using them in an
area where there are dogs and
children is “just asking for
trouble.”
“We just don’t want it to
happen to someone else so we
need to make people aware
if they are walking down the
beach,” he said.
An MPI spokeswoman said it
will consider what occurred and
whether any rule changes may
be needed.

Funding gets Jack on track
• By Anan Zaki
JACK Harris-Clarke’s family has
been saving money all year to
buy him a BMX bike.
It has been a tough ask for the
Hornby family.
But now their dream has come
true, thanks to the Mazda Foundation
which has stepped in with
a $2500 grant.
The 10-year-old from Hornby
is autistic with limited speech,
and has sensory issues, which
makes him only like fatty food.
To combat his weight, mother
Kate Harris-Clarke has tried
to get him into various sports,
without much success.
But Jack finally found a sport
to play last year, when he went
riding at the Kyle Park BMX
track in Hornby, with his nineyear-old
brother Dean.
But proper equipment was expensive.
After trying various organisations,
the family received
good news last month when they
were granted the money.
“It was incredible, I stood there
and bawled my eyes out,” Mrs
Harris-Clarke said.
With the grant from Mazda
Foundation, the family had
enough savings (originally
intended for Jack) to buy new
equipment for his younger
brother.

SCOOTER
MAD:
Shannon
Smith says
he would
like to see a
permanent
pump track
installed at
the Shirley
Community
Reserve
instead of a
temporary
one.
Temporary pump track not
good enough – Shirley pupil
• By Matt Slaughter
A SHIRLEY Primary School
pupil says the Papanui-Innes
Community Board’s push to
install a temporary pump track
is not the option he wants.
Shannon Smith, 11, started a
petition for a pump track at the
Shirley Community Reserve but
said he would have preferred a
permanent track instead.
Shannon said he has ridden
on temporary tracks in the past
and “it wasn’t smooth and wasn’t
that nice to ride on.”
He currently has to travel out
of Shirley to find tracks where he
can ride his scooter.
Although he said a temporary
track will be great while it lasts,
once it is eventually moved, he
and his friends will go back to
having nowhere to ride nearby.
“If it’s just temporary, we’d
have to go back into town after
it’s gone.”
Shannon’s dad Tim Weir said
he thought Shannon’s idea
for a permanent track would
mean kids in the area have fun
and connect for many years to
come.
“It would be a place where
they could enjoy hanging out
positively and a good reason to
get them outside.”
The Papanui-Innes
Community Board is currently
seeking funding options for the
installation of a temporary track
by June next year.

A CEMETERY which
remembers the victims of the
February 22, 2011, earthquake
could get a name change.
The Fendalton-Waimairi-
Harewood Community Board
will ask the city council to
consider adding the word
‘memorial’ to Avonhead Park
Cemetery’s name.
Friends of Avonhead Cemetery
chairman Clive Paris was pleased
with the community board’s
decision.
The cemetery is home to an
interment site opened on the first
anniversary of the quake.
Fifty-eight victims are
memorialised at Avonhead Park
Cemetery, the city council said.
The group has been
campaigning to change the name
to reflect the interment site’s
significance for 18 months.
“It’s a step forward, sanity
prevails, and it’s also the wishes
of families of the deceased
who are buried there from the
[February 22], 2011, earthquake,”
he said.
“We’ve got a $300,000
[interment] there, and referred to
Local
News
Now
Fire rages, homes at risk
Cemetery name
change likely
as a memorial by former Mayor
Bob Parker,” Mr Paris said.
Friends of Avonhead Cemetery
will continue to urge city
councillors to change the name.
Community board chairman
Sam MacDonald said the board
was against the recommendation
from city council staff, which was
to keep the existing name.
“Community boards are there
to represent the community. This
council is commonly criticised for
not being prepared to listen to the
community,” Mr MacDonald said.
He expects the city council
to consider the board’s
recommendation in February.
If that recommendation is
accepted, the city council will
start public consultation to
change the name.
Board member Aaron
Campbell disagreed with Friends
of Avonhead Cemetery on the
“sensitive” subject of changing
the name. Mr Campbell was
the only board member to vote
against changing the name.
“Particularly around the
Avonhead Park cemetery,
any changes that have been
made have been extremely
contentious,” he said.

Pressure on to save city’s water
PRECIOUS: Limit the time you
operate your garden hose.
THE CITY council is taking a mythbusting
approach to remind residents
about the need to save water this
summer.
It has put out a series of fact-based
articles via its website and Facebook
page in an effort to correct common
misunderstandings about
water use in Christchurch.
Water supply programme
manager Helen Beaumont
says it’s important people get
the facts so they understand
the importance of saving
water this summer.
“We’ve had a lot people
effectively calling us out for
asking them to save water
when water bottling plants are taking
it out of the ground every day. But
there are two problems with that.
Firstly, the city council doesn’t decide
who can or can’t take groundwater,
Environment Canterbury does, while
taking environmental factors into
account. And secondly, the water
taken by water bottling plants doesn’t
actually affect our public water
supply – they’re separate issues.”
Ms Beaumont says another
common misunderstanding is
around the need to conserve water
this summer.
“It’s not that we’re running out
of water. The problem is we need to
take some water wells out of service
so we can upgrade them and stop
Helen
Beaumont
chlorinating as fast as possible. If we
keep using too much water, we have
to use more wells to cope, and then
we can’t work on them. It’s really that
simple,” she says.
A wet start to summer in
Christchurch has seen the city
council’s online water dial
spend a number of consecutive
days in the “green zone”,
which is where the city council
wants to see it stay as the city
moves into the warmest part
of the year.
Ms Beaumont says the
rain means people generally
don’t feel the need to turn
on their garden sprinklers
or irrigators, which are the biggest
household water users.
“Running a garden sprinkler or
irrigator for an hour can use up to
1500 litres – or 150 buckets – of
water. That’s a huge amount when
you consider we’re targeting an
average daily use of 212 litres per
person this summer. We’re asking
people to use hand-held hoses to
water – during early morning or late
evening – because you can direct
exactly where the water goes and
avoid wasting it.”

SUPPORT:
Sebastien
Lallemant, Meg
Shatford, Mesiah
Auvae and
Alex Hemens
helped make
the children’s
Holiday camp a
big success.
“Life-changing” camp for
children with special needs
A CAMP for children with
special needs has been described
as “life-changing.”
Christ’s College year 13 student
Sebastien Lallemant, who lives
in Merivale and helped run the
camp, was one of 78 students
from Christ’s and St Margaret’s
colleges who made the event a
huge success.
Sebastien said the event
had taken a lot of effort to run,
but “it was all worth it in the
end to see all of the kids facial
expressions.”
The children’s holiday camp
was held at Christ’s from
December 7-9 and welcomed
14 young people with a diverse
range of needs for a weekend of
activities and fun.
It was the first time the
event had been held in New
Zealand.
The camp was extra special for
the children who attended, as it
was the first time many had ever
spent a night away from their
parents.
It was significant for parents,
too, some of whom had never
had a break from the full-time
caring duties that can come with
raising kids with the most severe
disabilities.
St Margaret’s well-being coordinator
Annie Wynne said
it was “life-changing” for all of
those involved.
Ms Wynne said some
volunteers had been brought to
tears by the positive reactions of
the kids at the camp. The holiday
camp is now set to become an
annual event in Christchurch.
Maiyah gets a star
THE GREATEST gift Maiyah
Martin could receive for
Christmas is to know people
in need have the necessities to
get by.
With the help of her mum
Donna and younger brother
M.J, Maiyah, 8, has been doing
her bit to fundraise for the City
Mission by selling baking at
food markets.
Her services were recognised
when she was presented with a
star by the City Mission as part
of its Walk of Stars pathway
which runs along Oxford Tce.
All of the proceeds from
her baking have gone towards
buying pamper packs full of
toiletries to donate to the City
Mission.
Maiyah’s mission is
documented on her Facebook
page, Girl With Cake Projects,
which has more than 300
Facebook likes.
The pathway displays the
names of people who have
made significant contributions
to the City Mission’s cause.
GENEROUS: Maiyah Martin

City Mission
needs food
THE City Mission is in desperate
need of food donations to make
sure people don’t go hungry at
Christmas.
Demand for its food bank is up
44 per cent, with people lining
up for hours before it opens to get
what they need.
The City Mission expects to
see a 25-30 per cent increase in
demand for its services in the
lead-up to Christmas Day.
Food donations are also in short
supply for its Christmas lunch,
with city missioner Matthew
Mark saying he expects this to
be the City Mission’s “largest
Christmas yet as they face a
significant increase in the need
among their community.”
He said it needs canned food,
toiletries, biscuits, tea and coffee.
For the Christmas lunch, it
needs Christmas cake, pavlova
and mince pies.
Celebrating success at Rangi Ruru
SHOWTIME: Rangi Ruru’s kapa haka group performed at the
prize-giving.
WHAT’S NEXT?
Year 13 student
Isabella Carter
received
scholarship
offers from
three United
States
universities.
THE AWARDS were rolled out
at Rangi Ruru Girls’ School’s
end of year prize-giving.
The top students took
centre stage at a ceremony on
December 5, with a range of
achievements being recognised.
Year 13 student Valerie
Xiang was named dux,
finishing top of the class in
music and chemistry, first equal
in English, and gaining a high
achievement award in physics
and French.
About 50 students earned
university scholarships, with
eight receiving offers from
overseas universities.
Top scholarship honours went
to Isabella Carter, who received
offers to attend the University
of California, the University of
Southern California and the
University of Virginia.
Student achievement was also
showcased on the night, with
dancer Juliette Ward accepting
a scholarship to study at the
Next Step Performing Arts
programme in Sydney.
Principal Sandra Hastie
said the award-winners showed
“it is the norm to be the best
you can be” at the school.

FOCUS ON HEALTH
Dilo Oil – The Remarkable
Skin Rejuvenator
Until Rachel
Hunter’s popular
TV series “TOUR OF
BEAUTY” Dilo Oil was
relatively unknown being
one of the best-kept secrets of
the Pacific Islands. It may however
be the number one natural beauty oil
available as it possesses powerful natural
skin regeneration, anti-aging and healing
properties.
According to ethnobotanist Chris
Kilham, Dilo (pronounced dee-low)
Oil is a powerful skin regenerator as
it is one of the most effective agents
in promoting the regeneration and
formation of new tissue, thereby
accelerating wound healing and the
growth of healthy skin. Dilo Oil is
super-absorbing and nourishing
and can penetrate all three layers
of the skin, offering exceptional
cell hydration and regeneration.
As well as this, Dilo Oil has potent
anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial,
antifungal and antioxidant properties.
Traditionally, Dilo Oil is used to keep the
skin young and youthful and for just about
any skin complaint. Some of the conditions
for which it is considered helpful include
abrasions, cuts and cracks, acne and acne
scars, pimples, blemishes, stretch marks,
wrinkles, blisters, burns (including chemical
and radiation), diabetic sores, rashes, shaving
irritation, dry or scaly skin, eczema, psoriasis,
dermatitis, herpes
sores (cold-sores),
insect bites and stings,
rheumatism, pain, sciatica,
shingles, sunburn, rosacea,
athlete’s foot, skin eruptions,
warts, skin ulcers and sores, nappy
rash and almost any other skin ailment
and often with incredible results.
Many beauty and skincare products
on the market today contain unnatural
ingredients that can be toxic and may
even contribute to disease. Generally
the benefits are exaggerated and often
only temporary or camouflage.
Marshall’s Dilo Oil is 100% pure
and certified organic. It has been
cold-pressed from the Dilo nut and
contains absolutely no additives.
Polynesians and Southeast Asians
have revered Dilo Oil for centuries
believing it to be a sacred gift of
nature and the Gods. Dilo Oil
contains a unique blend of fatty
acids that stimulate and supports
the skins natural healing process through
the growth of new healthy skin tissue. It is a
remarkable product we highly recommend to
everyone. A 50ml bottle is $19.90 and 100ml
only $29.90.
Further information is available from
the Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s
Health & Natural Therapy, 101 Seaview

Collagen
The Body’s Youth Protein
Collagen is the primary
protein in the body. It is a
major component of skin,
hair, nails, muscles, tendons,
ligaments, joint cartilage,
bones, gums, teeth, eyes, and
blood vessels.
In fact collagen is
the primary structural
component for all tissue in the
body, providing the strength
and resilience associated with
youth, beauty and wellness.
The body’s natural collagen
production decreases with age resulting in
many signs of aging, such as flaccid skin,
wrinkles, ligament and tendon injuries and
aching joints. Collagen supplementation
is one of the most fundamental things a
person can do to prevent premature aging
and promote youthful vitality.
NEOCELL are the industry leaders in
research on collagen supplementation.
Through advanced research they have
perfected a way to hydrolyse collagen and
effectively reduce its molecular weight this
improving the absorption of collagen into
the blood stream by over 90%.
A clinical study on NEOCELL
COLLAGEN has shown skin hydration to
increase an average of 21% and up to 50%,
with 92% of test subjects experiencing
firmer, softer skin. Most people taking

Christmas is so much more
than tinsel and trees
There seems to be more and
more to do at Christmas these
days, from choosing between
traditional or up-to-theminute
decoration colour
schemes through to worrying
about having a ‘beach-ready
body’ and buying presents,
food and bubbles.
With all the hype and pressure
around the season, it’s easy
to forget that Christmas is in
fact a faith-based celebration
of the birth of Jesus Christ
and a time to come together

in worship. Churches across
the city are recognising
Christmas and what it means
for Christians in a number of
ways, often with music at the
centre.
Most churches offer Carol
Services encouraging us all
to raise our voices in the
seasonal songs we remember
from our childhood, as well as
concerts, talks and recitals.
It is a time when churches
and faith-based organisations
remind us of how fortunate
Anglican
we are and that it is possible
to give gifts of hope that will
make a true difference at
this time of year. Christmas
is, after all, about giving nor
receiving.
So why not take a moment
away wrapping the expensive
electronics to reflect on the
true meaning of the season
and call into your nearest
church – all are always
welcome, regardless of their
faith, and especially so at
Christmas.
