Resources For Those Affected
By The Flooding
There are different resources available for those affected by the flood.
1. Insurance: For those dealing with insurance companies, this is a link to a church based organisation that worked with people after the Chch earthquakes. They have lots of experience and a deep understanding of the process. https://www.nzcrs.govt.nz/how-we-work/about-our-process/
2. Counselling: The Sunrise Foundation is working with Male Support Services in the Waikato. They are a registered Counselling Service and have offered free and unlimited 1 to 1 phone counselling for anyone who wants it. All their counsellors are vetted, qualified and registered. If you wish to use them simply email referrals@waikatosurvivors.org.nz and let them know you are from Gisborne and have been given their details by Glenda Jackson of Sunrise Foundation. Give your name, phone number and whatever details you wish to share. They will ring you back.
3. There will be counselling/mental health seminars run in Gisborne in early to mid April. More details will follow as dates/times/venues and other information is confirmed.

We are a Community Church located in the Northwestern suburb of Mangapapa, in Gisborne City, New Zealand, where the sun shines first in the world of every new day.
Our Church roots are Methodist & Presbyterian and we maintain that connection as a Union Parish through the Uniting Congregations of Aotearoa NZ. On 13 April 2013, we celebrated 100 years here. Our Worship Services are best described as contemporary in style and charismatic. We share Communion in the 10am Service on the first Sunday of each month. We undertake Believers Baptism by immersion.
We are a church of all ages – from 0 to 94 and we enjoy worship together. Our focus is Jesus Christ as Lord and ‘There is nothing that the nearness of Jesus cannot overcome’. Thanks for visiting our website and we hope you find helpful information here
