Orders of Service for a Tangihanga and an Unveiling: A resource manual for worship leaders

Te Paepae Tapu o Te Maungarongo ki Ohope

The Rev Wayne Te Kaawa, the Moderator of Te Aka Puaho (the Māori Synod of the Presbyterian Church of Aotearoa New Zealand) has helpfully produced a bilingual Māori and English resource for ministers and worship leaders who may need resources to aid them with a tangi, funeral and unveiling. It can be downloaded here.

  1. Thanks Jason. I do have a problem with liturgies as this here on p58 & 71 which request that somehow ours prayers may have an effect on the deceased which to me to runs counter to WCF 21.4 and reference to the mythological Earth Mother [Papatuanaku] page 54 which raises some questions about our doctrine of creation confessed in Scripture & the ecumenical creeds
