... man, trying to negotiate the internet aint easy. Took ages to find my blog again. But, all good, finally made it back. As I did to Petone Baptist these last 2 Sundays, after quite some time. I like to refer to it as THE church that I don't go to. As in "Yeah, that's the church I don't go to too". Anyway. Was a good time taking a crowd of 'folk' through a powhiri alongside Mike R & Mike P. Doing the karanga, which is not my forte' is always a challenge but I try to say 'yes' rather than 'no'. To acknowledge the karanga as a taonga & a privelege. Interestingly, some people assume they see me in my element in that role. I am soooo not in my element. It is possibly one of the few things I occasionally do that I really wish someone else was doing! But, in the situations I find myself in, there is no one else, so, there I am. Anyway, 3 Sundays in a row & a Disco at church on Saturday night. That'll do it. I do feel challenged again to prioritise the learning of Te Reo Maori, Te Reo Rangatira. No point talking about it! Gotta get on & just flippin do it!
