The group above were among those who "rallied to the call of Rangiatea" when a working bee was arranged on Saturday last. Thirty men in all responded, Archdeacon Panapa said yesterday, and in addition, parish womenfolk prepared abundant supplies of refreshments, most of which had been donated. Those pictured above dismantled a former cookinghouse at the City Mission camp and then set about preparing the foundations for a double garage at the vicarage. Another group "set to with a will" the pastor said, when working around the church proper. A small group will continue this saturday and then a fortnight hence all helpers will be recruited again to complete undertakings which have been commenced
