Waiau Valley Parish

We're run by a church council/team ministry team and we have a consistent supply of speakers to take services throughout the year.  

Tuatapere is a small rural town utilised by forestry, trucking and farming community. It has a good mixture of young families through to middle aged and older pensioners. Facilities include tourism ventures, with Hump Ridge Track, jet boating, hiking and fishing and hunting guided tours. There's one supermarket supplier, small cafes and backpacker amenities. A hotel and motel now provide accommodation for travellers passing through on the southern scenic route. A forestry museum provides the history of the township and how Tuatapere was established.

Our church was erected in 1916 and helped support the district's growth and provided the local Presbyterians a place to worship and know our Lord. It continues to work with the community where ever the need arises.
