Khandallah Presbyterian Church History
Khandallah Presbyterian parish has roots that can be traced back well over 100 years. Scottish settlers arrived in the area around 1856 and records show that they held their earliest services in 1878 in private homes, then in a small community hall in Simla Crescent.
On 19 September 1893 Wellington Presbytery appointed the Rev H.B. Burnett to oversee church work in the Khandallah area, which at that time stretched from Johnsonville to Wadestown. Then in July 1897 they appointed a Session for a new parish called ‘Onslow’ which consisted of three separate congregations at Johnsonville, Khandallah and Wadestown. Each worked towards establishing itself in its particular area and eventually each opened its own church building. The first building for Khandallah Presbyterian Church was opened at 38-44 Cockayne Road on 21 April 1902 and it is from this date that Khandallah parish celebrated its centennial on 19-21 April 2002.
A large site for a church in Ganges Road was purchased in 1919, but it was not until 1949 that the original church was moved from its site in Cockayne Road to the Ganges Road section. The present large brick building which seats a maximum of 450 was opened and dedicated on 5 December 1960. It is well appointed with a splendid Croft pipe organ comprising fifteen ranks. This was completely overhauled, refurbished and slightly extended in February 2001. Khandallah Presbyterian Church is one of the few parishes to still have an active choir.
With the opening of the new church, the old wooden building served as a hall. This burned down on 14 March 1971 and the present handsome hall complex was built in its place and dedicated on 19 November 1973. This is well used as a meeting place by many community groups.
In 1978, the Session decided that the land beside the church, previously used by a tennis club, could be better used and eight retirement villas were built. These are now well established and are always occupied.
On 21 July 1996 a Place of Remembrance located beside the church, was dedicated. This is a self-funding project which is much appreciated by the congregation. Plots designed to hold up to four caskets of ashes are available to purchase by members or past members of the congregation.

Help my unbelief
Dear God, help my unbelief. When I'm in pain, I forget that you care about me. I forget that you have helped me through my trials. I forget that you hold me in your arms to keep me safe. I forget that you are feeling my pain with me. I forget that you love me, I forget that I am important to you. Show me your presence - let me feel your enveloping love. Heal my hurting soul. Thank you for staying with me even in my unbelief.
