Indigenous Ministry Innovation

Pioneering new Indigenous initiatives
What is the Ministry Innovation program?
The Ministry Innovation Program supports our Indigenous church and ministry partners in designing and pioneering new and innovative, locally initiated and led projects and programs. It offers financial and advisory support to help design, launch and establish community-based programs that engage in ministry activities such as evangelism and outreach, networking and training, and development of social enterprises and relief programs.
What is the impact of this project?
Indigenous ministry partners will implement the types of programs that they know will best reach their local communities.
Examples of the types of projects supported through the program include:
- Development of social enterprise projects
- Emergency relief programs
- Art groups, music and cooking classes and programs
- After-school and youth-focused programs
- Bible studies, camps and other study groups
