About

A First Nations ministry, led by First Nations people.

Founded in 2016. Apostolic. Our people, and our nation — everyone is welcome.

Our vision

To reach, raise and empower our people, our nation, for their God-given assignment.

“Our people” is referring to the First Nations. “Our nation” includes everyone.

The emphasis is Indigenous. The welcome is not. Anyone with a heart for First Nations people of their nation belongs here.

Track record

We are a proven ministry.

We have been running since 2016, with outreaches and church plants in our own communities across Western Australia and Queensland.

By your fruit you shall tell them.
