Raglan

 
 
 

Today we decided to visit Raglan Branch which is about 30 minutes west of our home. It was a very picturesque journey but the road was very windy. Even though we liked the welcoming members I think the journey will put us off visiting there every week. The Pacific Area was holding a special fast weekend. As a church we fast every first Sunday of the month. Generally we go without food for 2 or 3 meals and the money that we would have spent on food we donate to our church for the poor and needy. We also pray more often during this time and usually have a specific purpose that we pray about. This Sunday we were asked to all pray for a united cause. The reason I am telling you this is because we started our fast rather late on the Saturday so we were not in a rush to get home for our yummy Sunday roast dinner. Instead we took a leisurely drive around the coastline before stopping and looking over the cliff and watching the gliders flying over the ocean. Another place we must return to, Wainui Reserve.
