Last Sunday on our travels around the area this church caught my eye from the main highway and we turned into the driveway to check it out.
Omanaia Historical Church was apparently founded in 1884 and is the second oldest standing church building in the Hokianga district.
There was a heaviness in the air but we couldn't believe it when I tried the front door and it was unlocked. This is the interior - looks like someone has really looked after this property as other churches we've explored are in nowhere near as good condition.
