Are You Ready?The Story of Christ Church Cathedral New Zealand's Journey After the 2011 Earthquake - Sunday, March 22, 2026 Natural emergencies seem to be in the news all too frequently these days: earthquakes, wild fires, flooding, mudslides, extreme rain and wind events — the list goes on. We all know that we are supposed to be prepared, but are we? Please join us for lunch to hear the compelling story about the impact the 2010–2011 Christchurch, New Zealand earthquakes had on their Cathedral and congregation. Chris Oldham, from Christ Church Cathedral (NZ), will be joining us by Zoom to share his first hand experience of what it was like to be in their Cathedral on February 22, 2011 when the damaging earthquake occurred — and how their congregation continues to respond with faith and resilience.
We have a limited number of spaces available for members of the Cathedral and other Diocesan parishes to attend in-person. You will receive an email — human generated, so it may take a day or two — confirming your registration. For more infomation visit:
