St Andrew’s Presbyterian Church was a prominent church in Dunedin, New Zealand. Designed by pre-eminent Dunedin Robert Lawson it was constructed in 1870 to serve a rapidly developing area of the city which became notorious for its slum housing, poverty and crime which led to it being referred to as the “Devil’s Half-Acre” from 1873 onwards. The church is best known for its long time crusading minister the Reverend Rutherford Waddell. Waddell’s ‘Sin of Cheapness’ sermon which was a landmark in New Zealand’s social and labour history was delivered from its pulpit. It eventually closed as a place of Presbyterian worship in 1978 and after briefly serving as a place of worship for the Word of Life Pentecostal Church it was purchased by the Coptic Orthodox Church in 2000, who renamed it the Arc
