Gorgeous little church
Arrived at close to 5pm on Sunday and managed to look inside the church for a while. Missed the service at 4pm but the awesome ambience still lingers on. Although unable to take pictures inside the church out of respect, the exterior truly speaks of its beauty! Keep shining brightly!

Lucky for us
We happened to be back in Tekapo on Easter Sunday, so went to the afternoon service at this gorgeous church. Run and cared for by the locals the Church is an iconic building in the tourist town. Unfortunately, they have had to fence it off and monitor access to preserve and protect this historic building.
