Meet Your Regional Pastors:
Campbell and Coral Bond
Campbell and Coral have been married for 14 years and have two children; Madison (11) and Ezra (9). They are enjoying the journey of parenthood, love experiencing the great NZ outdoors, keeping fit (Campbell rather fanatically), reading, hospitality, and creating great memories with friends and family. Their hearts desire is to see the Church become a healthy, interdependent team, living out authentic Christianity that starts in private and works its way out domestically, vocationally and results in affecting their community at large.

How does it work?
You sign up to host or attend a dinner with other Life Easties but won’t know where you are going or who is coming for dinner until the evening. We will pair people up so that you can meet and get to know a few more people from our Region.
I want to host, what do I have to do?
As a host you sign up and agree to host people in your home for dinner. We will provide you the exact number of guests (min of 4 people) and any dietary requirements a few days before so that you can prepare your meal. You will then need to make dinner for the people coming to your home and they will bring $5 each to contribute towards the costs of the meal.
I want to attend, what do I do?
As an attendee you sign up by providing us with your details, the number of people that will be attending and any dietary requirements and we will connect you with a dinner host. The address for dinner will then be text messaged to you the night before and you just need to turn up at that address at 7pm with $5 per person towards dinner and some drink.
Please decide whether you would like to host or attend a dinner and email the below information to Andrew and Gill Ardern on gillian.ardern@gmail.com (mobile: 021740933).
Also, please provide any other notes or details if you have them for example; we can only have 4 people for dinner as our home is really small or we are happy to host up to 6.
