These photographs depict a special celebration held around the Christmas / New Year period sometime during the 1980s. People came from all around the Central North Island to attend this celebration. The location is thought to be Waituna West, possibly Rewa Presbyterian Church. The priests in the photographs were born in New Zealand, but traveled to what was then Yugoslavia to train in the arts of icon painting. Their names were Father Nicholas and Father Ambrose.
