Beautiful Church contains both cultures - Maori and western. And geothermal phenomenon of Rotorua makes it worth seeing.. ❤️

Beautiful! A small donation will allow you entrance. The stained glass is gorgeous. The attendant is lovely to chat with about the history. The views outside are spectacular!

Nice building's, mostly Maori influences, couldn't gain access to the main church.

Beautiful little church!

Very pretty little church. I am not a church goer myself but love the peace and tranquility of this church and all the history that goes with it. Very pretty windows. Is also nice to walk around the village here. Suitable for all ages. Small walk from car park to site, there is a little shop and toilets on site

I was wandering around the outside of the church where the lovely volunteer Monty greeted me and enlightened me with a tremendous amount of great information about the church and the surrounding areas. Thank you so much Monty. It was so lovely to have crossed your path.

Very welcoming, church services are both in English and in RE Reo. A lovely iconic place, Prince Harry and his wife visited there. It's a tourists attraction

Each week we attend Church. Our Spiritual Well Being and Faith are big within our lives. Coming to Church regularly is a highlight of our week. St Faiths, Ohinemutu is s lovely place of worship and our Rev Tom Poata and friendly congregation make it special and very welcoming for all.

It took us a a minute to find it but it was well worth the search it was a very unique small church that had this beautiful picture of Christ standing on the water as you looked out the window and he was dressed in his Mari clothing and very unique experience I strongly recommend this place if you're in the area you got to go seek it out it was in 1989 when we were there

Interesting place in Rotorua. It is a church but blend with Maori culture. We could not go into the church but outside still has a lot to see.

C. H.

Most amazing church - mesmerised by the large window overlooking the lake. Our guides husband and wife shared so much knowledge- this experience totally uplifting.👍😇

Interesting walk around the indigenous village by the thermal springs. The church is lovely and worth a look in when there.

FYI open only between 10 and 3 PM! Not sure if that is any day or only weekdays.

It's a nice small church with Maori carvings on the benches and walls. I couldn't see the timetable around Google and Lonely Planet has it wrong. So it says it's open daily from 10am to 3pm. There's also a Jesus representation on a window that looks like he is walking on water. Right in front of the church there's a marae that is also beautiful. You can also visit a cemetery at the back of the church.

A must see !! One of my top spots in Rotarua .

D. C.

The stained glass of Jesus is breathtaking. Looks like he's walking on water. The carvings and tukutuku, alongside the religious artifacts illustrate a definite infusion of cultures and peoples. Definitely a sight to see!

K. E.

Lively historical church showing Jesus walking on water

"Must-see" spot on the lake in Rotorua - with glass etching of Christ Walking on the Water

Wonderful spiritual place!!!

Stunning tutor style facade with ornately carved interior

Graveyard sacred to Maori where Soldiers of War are laid to rest. The Church is an icon of Rotorua. Sunday services are unique as sermon is delivered in Te Reo Maori.

Great place

(Translated) Located on the shores of Lake Rotorua, it is very suggestive because of the hot and sulphurous water coming from the lake. (Original) Posta in riva al lago di Rotorua è molto suggestiva per via dei vapori dell'acqua calda e sulfurea che escono dal lago.

(Translated) Interesting monument with a Maori military cemetery right next to it. It is interesting to note the differences in funeral culture as the soldiers fell in the same fights as the Europeans. (Original) Monument intéressant avec un cimetière militaire maori juste à côté. Il est intéressant de constater les différences de culture funéraires alors que les soldats sont tombés dans les mêmes combats que les Européens.

(Translated) Fusion of Anglican and Maori. It is a sacred place to the last, so it is not recommended if you want to visit it casually as a tourist spot. Christ will be in the glass overlooking Lake Rotorua in the church and you will be refreshed. Even though it is a church, it is engraved with Maori, so you will be fascinated by it. Let's be quietly grateful for seeing our journey. (Original) 英国国教会とマオリの融合。あくまで神聖な場所なため、観光スポットとして気軽に訪れたいならお勧めしません。教会内のロトルア湖が見えるガラスにキリスト様がいて心洗われるでしょう。また教会なのにマオリの彫刻が施されているので心惹かれるでしょう。私たちの旅路を見てくれていることに、静かに感謝しましょう。

(Translated) The steam from the lake due to geothermal heat and the buildings with Maori characteristics have turned into a worthy view. It will not take much time, but it will be impressive. (Original) 湖面因地熱散發出的蒸汽，與具毛利特色的建築，變成了一幅值得欣賞的美景，不會花太多時間，但會讓人印象深刻。

(Translated) Let's Always Remember Them ... Lest we forget we will Remember Them❤ (Original) Kia Maumahara tonu Tatou ki a Ratou...Lest we forget we will Remember Them❤

(Translated) Have a famous window It is a church on the shore of Lake Rotorua. One window of this church From all over the world to see People come. Added a church in the 1960s It is something that was sometimes made. The vague appearance of people from the outside You can only see it, but inside the church Seen from Lake Rotorua Walk on the water It is the form of Christ. It is a famous scene in the Bible. The appearance of Christ is Although it is a form that you can imagine, I am wearing indigenous people The costume is "Rokowai". Edging, hand carving, Such as sandblasting Combining various techniques It is manufactured. 2020.05 / 24 (Original) 有名な窓があるロトルア湖畔の教会です。この教会の１枚の窓を見るために世界中から人々が訪れます。 1960年代に教会を増築した時にできたモノです。外からは人の姿がぼんやりと見えるだけですが、教会内部から見ると、ロトルア湖を借景とした、水の上を歩くキリストの姿なのです。聖書でも有名なシーンです。キリストの風貌は、誰もが想像できるような造形ですが、まとっているのは、先住民の衣装「ロコワイ」です。エッジング、手彫り、サンドブラスト加工といった様々な技巧が組み合わされて製作されています。 2020.05/24記

(Translated) Maori church. (Original) 毛利人的教堂。

(Translated) For the church I would give 5 stars. I really like it. For the management I think 3 stars is too much. As for enter there is a lady ask for donation which I did donate $20 (The only cash I have) when I enter . While before I leaving I said thank you to the lady But she asked me to donate again which I said I did. Dont know if she think I am rich because I am asian or beacuse she has to.Totally understand the church needs to maintain But don't really like the way they are forcing people to Donation. Love the church But won't come anymore. Thanks. The church is recommended, but the mandatory donation is a bit disgusting. After donating the only $20 in my body, I don’t know if it’s because of an Asian face. I said thank you, but she said that I needed a donation. I said I just donated. , She said, oh so, thank you. This incident is very offensive. Will not come again, thank you. (Original) For the church I would give 5 stars. I really like it. For the management I think 3 stars is too much.

Love the church But won't come anymore. Thanks. 教堂是推荐的，只是强制捐款让人有些反感，把身上唯一的20纽币捐了之后临走前不知道是不是因为是亚洲面孔，我说谢谢，她却说需要捐款，我说我刚捐了，她说哦这样啊，谢谢。这件事让人很反感。不会再来了，谢谢。
