Went for a walk to check this for CO who is out of town and is not there. Looks like area has had a tidy up
Couldn't find it 
Didn't search for long as still have another 5 hours driving today. Yes, lots of stones at GZ, but nothing that looks like a pile of stones, let alone rocks. Several cars in carpark, so not spending any more time here.
Given time since last find, could CO please check it's still there. Might have another go on East back down later in the week.

Just recently relocated to Queenstown from Perth, Aus so this weekend we've been driving around, exploring and picking up some caches. In Cromwell today to do some shopping and made a quick find at this one. TFTC!
GPS was all over the place. Finally found it. Many muggles watching from back yards. Found with Geoman_13. TFTC
Always feel guilty walking on a "garden." Found quite smartly once we transgressed!! Thanks.
Found while cycling from Queenstown to the start of the Otago Central rail trail.
Thank you sting1606 for this cache.

What a deautiful place for a cache easy to find, if anyone else goes, please stop and look. Thanks for the cache.
Walked to this cache last night after dinner, but unable to find, someone came out of the church asking if we wanted to come in, so we left. Early morning find with no one about. Tftc
Quick find once we had the right road! This church looks huge, I hope it is well used. TFTC
After stopping off for 40 minutes from the tour, I had enough time to grab 2 local caches and get some lunch. This one was a nice quick find once my GPS settled at GZ. TFTC.
Yay my second one found! Thank you, your clue made it possible to find even with a haywire GPS 
Nice find for night time. took some first time caches along and they loved it! Thanks.
Spotted the cache before I spotted the rocks! I left it hidden, assume it was meant to be under.
Had a good hunt around obvious location and surrounding area but no luck. Very impressive building. Thanks for bringing us here.
Impressive indeed (the building in 2 days!).
A really peaceful spot, although not far from the busy part of town.
Thanks, sting1606.

Thought my GPS must have been out as the obvious big pile of rocks was not in the right place, however scouted around and found what I was looking for. SL TFTC
Down this way for a spot of work and Rep training through the region of Otago and central Otago. This is the second day for work and as we got in an early start It seemed only right that we knocked off at just before 5pm. Having dropped my rep off I stole his car and told him I would see him later. This was the 5th cache around town that I located in my tour of Cromwell via GC Codes.
as I have not spent a lot of time in this region it was great to get out and about to view the countryside.
THanks for the placement

Luckily this one was out of view of the church muggles in the room by the front door. Another pretty quick find in the area with slieschke. TFTC!!! 
Found with funkymunkyzone on a long weekend caching trip down south from Auckland. A quick wander about, and oops, yes there it is! Yay!
Thanks!
Thanks!
so nice to be able to log this cache as this was the one that vz1pp used to introduce me to this game about a year ago, have been keeping an eye on it hoping it would be replaced, tftc
Every day we are traveling around is same but also different. Today we had again the pleasure to visit some very beautiful spots and were also able to find nearly placed geocaches. I thank every single owner for placing it and giving us with doing this an other good reason to come here.
Mallorcatommy and I were on our journey through the southern island of New Zealand. With the help of geocaches we came to so many beautiful places, saw breath-taking landscapes and had, all in all a very wonderful journey! Thank you to all owners for placing all those nice geocaches!
JRB5050 spotted this one and sent me in for retrieval, thanks for the replacement
I held his bike while PC Sniff darted into GZ to get this one. We marvelled at the “new look” of the church compared to the more traditional ones we normally see. Thanks for placing this cache.
Checked on behalf of sting the cache owner and cache no longer there. Have replaced it with a new one where it should be.
Utterly bad gps reading
35m off gz found the only piles of rocks but no cache
Maybe a check? Or i am just blind

Greetings from the UK. Nice to see a cache at a church, lets hope the cachers all come Sunday. Found on our way to Queenstown. TFTC, SL, TNLN
I really enjoy spending time in New Zealand, I just love it here. Its nature, people and adventures I am passing through. Awesome place, thank you very much for introducing to myself and for the cache itself 
Sorry for late logging, I have some problems with internet access during travelling.
Sorry for late logging, I have some problems with internet access during travelling.Holidaying in the South Island, grabbing a few caches on the way. Easy early morning find. Thanks for the cache.
A bit of an evening walk to find this unusually-placed cache. The locals must laugh to see the geocachers coming here to 'worship'!
