Papamoa Anglican Mission Church
This fledgling mission began this century! It reaches out to the community through community development and social services (a fantastic Op Shop – the Dovecote; Beachaven Community House catering for children, parents, youth and older folk); as well as provision of traditional Anglican worship and exploring other ways of being church in a new housing area of young families and retired people.
