High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Presbyterian Church of Aotearoa New Zealand (PCANZ) is the main Presbyterian church in New Zealand. The Presbyterian Church of New Zealand was formed in October 1901 with the amalgamation of churches in Synod of Otago and Southland with those north of the Waitaki River. Presbyterians had by and large come to New Zealand as settlers from Scotland, Ireland and Australia. Dunedin and Waipu were Presbyterian settlements, but significant numbers were found in other parts of the country including Christchurch, Port Nicholson (Wellington), and Auckland. Ministers came with the first European settlers to Wellington, Otago and Waipu, but generally nascent congregations called ministers from Scotland. Missions to the M?ori people focused on the Tuhoe people and led to the establishment of M?ori Synod, now known as Te Aka Puaho.
