A place I have always wanted to visit since a teenager. A beautiful sacred site with a wonderful connection to local whanau who look after the church and convent. The history of the sisters of compassion is a story of faith, courage and love. An amazing place to see!

If you have a little extra time take the back road to or from Whanganui via Raetihi. It is interesting drive along the Whanganui river and thru Jerusalem. Home of James K Baxter the poet

A precious place of peace. The heartbeat of history is strong here. There are not many well known places where the “Christian aesthetic” (very loosely used) and Maori culture mingle successfully. Here is one. It’s as if a Maori artist were given the go ahead to build on the colonial origin blocks of the place. If only more places like this were around.

A Beautiful, peaceful sanctuary out in the country away from the madness of city living, the perfect place to collect ones thoughts and get back in touch with nature with the beautiful interior to the well manicured lawns and fruit trees. The church is always open to visitors and the convent is only a few feet away, where the nuns are so friendly and helpful, it is a must see for everyone who is ever thinking of taking a trip along the gorgeous Whanganuu River Road.
