Methodist Mission

Nestled in the heart of Canterbury, Methodist Mission has been a beacon of hope and compassion for over a century. Our journey began as a humble welfare organisation, dedicated to uplifting our community one family at a time. Today, we continue that legacy, offering a myriad of services tailored to support the diverse needs of our society. Our Aratupu Preschool & Nursery, for instance, is more than just an educational institution. It's a nurturing environment where young minds flourish and little feet take their first steps towards independence. Meanwhile, our Whānau Support services foster strong, resilient families by providing guidance and resources to help them navigate life's challenges with confidence. Child and Family Services lie at the heart of our mission, ensuring the wellbeing and safety of our most precious assets - our children. We extend this commitment to Social Services, offering a helping hand to those in need, whether it's providing a roof over their heads through Social Housing or guiding them towards a brighter future. In the twilight of life, WesleyCare Hospital and Village offers a sanctuary where our elderly can age with dignity. Our Rest Home, Hospital, and Palliative Care facilities are staffed by compassionate professionals who treat each resident as family. For those seeking independence, Independent Living provides a supportive environment for seniors to maintain their autonomy while receiving necessary care. Beyond these services, Methodist Mission is deeply rooted in Community Development Initiatives. We believe in the power of collaboration and work tirelessly to foster partnerships that drive positive change across Canterbury. Through thick and thin, we stand by our community, offering a helping hand when it's needed most. We are Methodist Mission, your neighbour, your friend, your lifeline. We are here for you, today and tomorrow.
