NAU MAI HAERE MAI

In 2023, Northern Presbytery began its journey toward understanding what it truly means to be an intercultural church for Christ within our region. This included introducing the role of Intercultural Facilitator and establishing a three-year advisory group to guide and support this vision. Together, we look forward to embracing and celebrating intercultural life across our presbytery, how we gather, serve, lead, and walk with one another for the sake of Christ and His mission.
