Waiheke Island Baptist Church is a ministry of Windsor Park Baptist Church and a member of the Baptist Churches of New Zealand.
This Sunday...
Throughout this year, we have been on a journey with our series, In\Visible: Faith and Life in New Zealand, looking at the motif of exile that we see throughout Scripture. This has now finished, and we are now focusing on the season of Advent.
This Sunday, 22 December, Pastor Roi Nu Maran will be continuing our journey with this week's topic being 'Immanuel: God With Us' based on Matthew 1:23. Deleesha Cains will be leading the rest of the worship service. There is Kidz church this Sunday.

community involvement
We believe that the church's involvement in the community is essential to spread the love and hope of Jesus Christ. One of the ways Waiheke Island Baptist Church do is through our two op shops New Hope Shop (located at 6 Belgium St) and Timeless Treasures (on-site at Waiheke Island Baptist Church). Both are managed under the social enterprise, Windsor Park Hub, Limited.
Our unique mandate is to invest all profits into the Waiheke Island Community. Community and Hardship Grants from August 2009 to May 2019 total more than $422,000.
