About Me

My photo
Howard Carter
Howard Carter is a Presbyterian Minister. He is the minister in Whangarei in Northland, New Zealand. "it's challenging", says Howard, "I feel totally inadequate, but rely on Jesus, who is able to be strong in my weakness". Yes he's married to Kris and has four children. So he'sboth blessed and busy. Howard posts the messages he preaches on Sundays (the long posts with heaps of images), the occasional reflection, prayers he writes for services (when he's in a liturgical mood) and the odd movie review. He is avid bird photographer but does not over-bird-en his blog with his photos.
