This site has been a centre for South Dunedin Catholics for about 140 years and our beloved church building is now 121 years old. However, it is not the buildings that make Church – it is the people of God coming together day after day, and week after week, to learn how best to serve our God by caring for one another. And so I want to pay tribute to the people who, by their involvement, have made this parish what it is today. St Patrick’s has many families with long-standing connections to the parish. Some of the people here today will have been brought to the basilica as infants to be baptised, and then have received other sacraments in this church. Many of us have followed parents, grandparents, Photo supplied aunts and uncles, or have been here A gathering of parishioners after the in company with brothers, sisters and We thank God that representatives of the Sisters of Mercy and the Christian last St Patrick’s South Dunedin Parish children to celebrate our faith with Mass that was celebrated on Sunday 15 Masses, Benediction, devotions and the Brothers, whose presence has so February 2015.

    TEENA BROWN PULU Minerals and Cucumbers in the Sea: International relations will transform the Tongan state Abstract Constitution law researcher Guy Powles, a Pakeha New Zealander residing in Australia was not optimistic accurate predictions on “the [Tonga] election which is coming up now in November” could be made (Garrett, 2014). “A man would be a fool to try to guess just where the balance will finish up,” he uttered to Jemima Garrett interviewing him for Radio Australia on April 30th 2014 (Garrett, 2014). Picturing the general election seven months away on November 27th 2014, Powles thought devolving the monarch’s executive powers to government by constitutional reform was Tonga’s priority. Whether it would end up an election issue deciding which way the public voted was a different story, and one he was not willing to take a punt on. While Tongans and non-Tongan observers focused attention on guessing who would get into parliament and have a chance at forming a government after votes had been casted in the November election, the trying political conditions the state functioned, floundered, and fell in, were overlooked. It was as if the Tongans and Palangi (white, European) commentators naively thought changing government would alter the internationally dictated circumstances a small island developing state was forced to work under. Teena Brown Pulu has a PhD in anthropology from the University of Waikato. She is a senior lecturer in Pacific development at AUT University. Her first book was published in 2011, Shoot the Messenger: The report on the Nuku’alofa reconstruction project and why the Government of Tonga dumped it.

  • Newsletter 04 March 2015
    Newsletter 04 March 2015 Dear Parents and Caregivers Kia ora, Talofa lava, Malo e lelei, Kia orana, Bula vinaka, Warmest Greetings to you all. Soane Patita Paini Mafi, bishop of Tonga, is elevated to the rank of Cardinal by Pope Francis during a consistory, on February 14, 2015 at St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican. Archbishop John Dew from Wellington was also elevated to the same rank and is now Cardinal for New Zealand. Cardinal Mafi is the youngest church leader appointed to the role at the age of 53. At 66 years of age, Cardinal Dew, along with Cardinal Mafi will both likely be involved in voting for the next Pope, an honour only bestowed on Members of the College of Cardinals who are under the age of 80. On hearing the news of the announcement, Archbishop John said: "This news is recognition of the Catholic Church in Aotearoa New Zealand, and the contribution it makes to the global Catholic family. I'm delighted to hear that Bishop Soane Mafi of Tonga has also been named in the list, together it is not only great news for New Zealand and Tonga but for the Oceania region. We were so excited that Room 4, teacher Mrs Kuilei Pulotu was able to join a large group from New Zealand and Tonga to support Cardinal Mafi on a pilgrimage to Rome to witness this special event. We will certainly remember both men in our prayers as they begin this new journey in their spiritual lives. Catholic Diocese Education Dedication Mass. At the recent mass celebrated by Bishop Pat, attended by most teachers from Catholic schools in Auckland Mrs Williams, Mrs Tui and myself were awarded Certificates for attaining Leadership Level Accreditation with Endorsement as Religious Education teachers.
