Raetihi Whare Whakamoemiti. This was the first miniature Temple built outside Ratana Pa. The Morehu members from Raetihi supplied Ratana by gathering food for the workers who were helping to build this replica of the Temple. Ratana would stop at Raetihi when travelling north and on his way home. He referred to this Temple as his second door or gateway through which he would pass many times.
