With enrolments closing on October 25th, official stats from the Electoral Commission show that enrolments are tracking upwards, but there's still over 370,000 eligible people not enrolled, including 38% of 18-24 year olds.

That’s where you come in. As communities of faith we have everyday relationships and networks where we can extend care and practical support. Can you and your home group, ministry team or group of friends take up the challenge of each finding and enrolling 5 others before the Oct 25 deadline?

Could you spread the love this election season, by putting a placard up on your home, business or church?

Most people in Aotearoa want to live in a country where we have each other's backs — where we support one another and unite to protect what we love.

In an election season that can feel like it’s a zero-sum game, we can reclaim a politics that puts our shared values first. A politics that imagines an Aotearoa where everyone has enough to thrive, where our environment is protected, and where Te Tiriti o Waitangi is honoured.

No matter which party you back, help put aroha at the forefront of this election.

Order a placard for your home, business or church, and help remind our communities that when we vote with aroha, we vote for each other.

Enrolment deadlines have changed. Hundreds of thousands could miss out on voting. Let’s ensure our neighbours’ voices get heard in the 2026 general election.

We are supporting churches to:

1) Host an enrolment Sunday in September to get your own church enrolled and ready to vote.

2) Form a team to support people in your wider community to enrol to vote. Use your existing relationships and ministries to support and encourage your neighbours.

The Government's Move-On Orders aren't a solution to homelessness—they are a penalty for being poor. Forcing our most vulnerable neighbours into the shadows with threats of fines and jail doesn't solve the housing crisis; it just breaks the connection between people and the help they need.

We are deeply concerned that the Government is proceeding despite 98% of public submitters opposing Move-On Orders.

We are putting together a 3-part workshop series, launching in May 2026, designed for home groups, churches, or even just a group of friends around a dinner table.

We will explore:
Theology: Why Jesus cares deeply about these justice issues of climate, economic and Te Tiriti justice.
Lived experience: How these issues are currently impacting communities across Aotearoa
Action: How the Church can be a voice for transformation in the public sphere.
