Church of the Good Shepherd-->>

An old stone church sits among the placid grasses of New Zealand's South Island, a land known for its wide expanses of untouched land and vast farming outlets.
Aotearoa, or "the long white cloud," was the first name given to New Zealand when the Maoris paddled their long canoes to its inlet shores centuries before European explorers sailed through the Pacific waters. Within the compact island nation there are alps to rival Switzerland’s, plains more fruitful than England’s, streams and rivers as laden with fish as Scotland’s, fjords reminiscent of Norway’s, and beaches as alluring as California’s.
