Trinity Church is a smallish but vibrant, intimate and hospitable family-oriented congregation located in the growing suburb of Tikipunga,
5 kilometres to the north-east of Whangarei city centre, on the corner of Kiripaka Rd and Otuhiwai Crescent.
The 2006 census population for Tikipunga was 6114, an increase of 7.8% from the 2001 census. Approximately 2000 people travel through Tikipunga to the adjacent rural area with many lifestyle blocks and to the Tutukaka Coast area including the settlements of Ngunguru and Matapouri.
Trinity Church is part of the “The Whangarei Uniting Church” (WUC), which incorporates three parishes, St Andrews (Whangarei city centre), St James (Onerahi) and Trinity (Tikipunga). The WUC is affiliated to the Presbyterian, Methodist and Christian Churches of New Zealand denominations and has a common constitution. Under the constitution each parish may determine the Parish’s own polity.
The vision of Trinity Church is “Being salt and light to all” – which is built upon Jesus’ words in the Gospel of Matthew chapter 5 verses 13 to 16. Trinity Church is a warm and loving group of people that is welcoming of any visitors or new members/attendees.
