The annual visit of the Auckland Baptist members took place recently. Buses arrived bringing members of various parishes, who then proceeded to the Chateau where they spent part of the day. Saturday night was spent in Taupo and after the Sunday service, the buses returned to Auckland. Another similar visit will take place this coming Saturday. The Trans-Pacific Crusade, which is operating in Baptist Churches throughout most of New Zealand, will be receiving 130 members from United States and Hawaii, to spend two weeks here between September 12 and September 26.
