From the Diocese of Armidale:

“Every year we hold an Indigenous Ministry Day and this year the topic was ‘Raising Up Leaders’.

Speakers Rev. Michael Duckett and Rev. Jum Naden each opened up the Bible and shared how through Christ, we can have intergenerational hope, and that Christ is the greatest need of Indigenous peoples too. They then shared about some of the ways that Indigenous people can be trained for ministry including internships and The Well Training (including a new Indigenous stream is starting in 2027).”
