Karori St John's Church c 1912

Latest News (2007) Part of the stained glass from St John's has been re-used in the hall of St Ninian's church, Newcombe Crescent, Karori. St Ninian's Uniting Parish intends to use more of the glass elsewhere in the church buildings, as a memorial to an important part of its heritage. The parish was formed in 1994 by amalgamating the St Ninian's Presbyterian Church and the Wellington West Methodist Churches, St John's in Karori and Ward Memorial Church in Northland, Wellington.
