The advertising in The Weekend Sun was very very good and I am extremely pleased with all the calls I have had since placing the ads. I will continue to advertise with such a great response.
The Classified Section works like a directory. If you have a regular appearance in the Classified Section, people know where to look for your services when they need them. The Weekend Sun has a very popular Classified Section that is constantly building, and becoming a vital advertising tool. Another benefit to advertising in the Classifieds, is that we can always find something that will cater to suit your advertising needs and budget.
We can also fit Classified Advertisements in right up until the very last minute of going to print, which means if you have something urgent, you can usually count on the Classified Section to get it into the paper. Colour advertising is also very affordable in the Classified Section. It costs just $25 +gst extra to add colour to your advert – a fantastic investment to increase the profile of your advert.

Sensing his exasperation, the daughter said, “Daddy, I don’t need to know how the phone works as long as I can talk with Mummy!” King David in the Old Testament knew that there were many things that he simply could not and would not understand when it came to God. He wrote in Psalm 131 verse 1, “I don’t concern myself with matters too great or too awesome for me to grasp.” There is so much about God and His ways that far exceeds our human capacity to understand. Perhaps our most profound question is, “Why does God allow human suffering?” We were deeply saddened in our community when a little child died prematurely. She had brought so much joy and love to her family and friends. We naturally asked, “Why? It just makes no sense!” King David faced his own tragedies and at times questioned God. Yet he learned to humbly accept the impossibility of trying to figure God out: “I don’t concern myself with matters too great or too awesome for me to grasp.” Job, a godly man, who faced his own
family tragedies wrote, “Can you solve the mysteries of God? Can you discover everything about the Almighty?” (Job 11:7). Our perplexity is natural and the answers to our questions rarely satisfactory. To a wounded heart any response seem too cliché. Paradoxically, consolation is found in suffering itself. The scriptures reassure us that God so loved the world, that in Jesus Christ He came and lived amongst us, experiencing all our pain and suffering. For God was in Christ lovingly reconciling the world to Himself. In the face of all heartache, we can say God who is love travels with us, sharing in all our pain. God in His grace and mercy wants to assure us that one day all our questions will be answered, our pain soothed and healed in Jesus. We need the implicit trust of a child who does not need to know how things work as long as they can talk to the one whom they love. Talk to God for he is “The Way, the Truth, and the Life.” Donald Hegan, St Columba Presbyterian Church Tauranga
A month of Sundays exploring science and Christianity This week we take a look at the cosmos. Recent discoveries using the Hubble Telescope and powerful radio telescopes have revealed planets circling suns in far flung galaxies. Many scientists and philosophers have claimed that Earth is an ordinary speck of dust adrift without purpose
and significance, in a vast cosmic sea. Yet recent astronomical evidence seems to suggest just the opposite. This Sunday night at St. Enoch’s Presbyterian Church Guillermo Gonzalez, an astro-biologist whose work featured as a cover article on Scientific
American, takes us on a DVD presentation of the wonders of the universe. Gonzalez coined the now popular phase ‘Galactic Habitable Zone’ to describe the finely tuned nature of Earth’s place in the cosmos. Through stunning computer animation, interviews with leading scientists and spectacular images of Earth and the cosmos, ‘The Privileged Planet’ explores a startling connection between our capacity to survive and our ability to observe and understand the universe. Does this show we have a unique design and purpose as dwellers on Earth? Come along and check it out for yourself. Sunday October 28 at 7pm at St. Enoch’s Presbyterian Church, 134 16th Avenue.
