Welcome to the April Issue of Bush Telegraph, the monthly newsletter of the Presbyterian Church of Aotearoa New Zealand.

From May onwards, Bush Telegraph will be distributed solely in electronic format. Becoming an online publication will allow some changes to be made to the newsletter’s format and content. We would welcome feedback on what you would like to see and how it could become a more useful tool for your work. Would you like links to useful online worship, sermon or theological resources? Links to interesting articles? Would you like to receive these more often than monthly? Please email webmaster(at)pcanz.org.nz with any thoughts or suggestions.

If you are currently receiving the plain text version, we recommend that you consider updating your subscription to the HTML version, which has a more readable layout. Click here to see what the HTML version looks like
