“So the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua son of Jozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of the whole remnant of the people. They came and began to work on the house of the Lord Almighty, their God."
— Haggai 1:14-15
There’s a stirring in the air — can you feel it? After a season of preparation, planning, waiting and refining, the moment has finally come. We’ve walked through the fire and worked tirelessly to strengthen the foundation of our church. We wrestled with direction, sought clarity, and laid the groundwork. The time to wait has passed.
Now in 2025, we declare: It’s Time to Build.
God is the Great Architect. We are His builders, the co-labourers. We are building His church. God uses each of us according to His purpose.
In the time of Haggai, the Spirit of the Lord stirred up the entirety of the people. Together they used the skills they had to see the house of God be built again. This is our time to come together in unity and build for the generations to come. Every gift given, every hour volunteered, every prayer lifted — all contributes to building God’s design.
Together, we are shaping the future. We are building something tangible and powerful. A church that is thriving. A place of hope. A community of faith. A place of belonging.
We have a foundation. A vision. A dream. A blueprint. A goal. A purpose. We’re building more than just a structure. We’re building a legacy for the Kingdom of God in New Zealand.
Grab your tools. Let’s construct something extraordinary with God and for God.

Areas of Giving
These are the 3 key areas of our offering in 2025:
Palmerston North
Through God’s great provision, we have purchased a building in Palmerston North. Every step of the way, this purchase has been ordained by God, with miracle after miracle. The building is now being used for church services, kids’ ministry, offices, and as a hub for Arise Care. We believe that this building has created a catalytic moment for our Palmerston North community to grow and impact the Manawatū region.
Arise Care
Arise Care is a core ministry of our church. We have a mandate to reach our communities with hope and meet their needs. The Offering is the key way we fund this ministry; it sustains the work we are doing and empowers us to expand. The Arise Care initiatives bring meaningful impact in people’s lives. We are committed to meeting the needs of our neighbourhoods, communities, and the world.
Campuses
We are a church in 10 locations, each believing to see their city saved for Jesus. Our campuses have a united vision to reach the lost and take more ground for Jesus in New Zealand. In this offering we want to support that vision and empower our campuses to push further and reach more people. Each campus pastor has taken time to pray and dream for how this offering can be used to further this mission in their area.
One Church in many locations
Arise is one church in many locations around New Zealand, and in every campus of Arise there are great opportunities and great needs.
As we gather for our annual offering, we are believing it will make a difference in every location.
