The Christ Church in Ōhaupō is turning 100 years old in October.
Early worship was at the Gubbins Estate, later the Teddy Estate, in Ōhaupō before a small church was built in the 1880s on the land opposite Forkert Rd.
There was also a curate’s house on the site.
The present church was more convenient and longer and was opened in 1924 on Great South Rd at a cost of £1140.
