Luke Kaa-Morgan (Tainui Āwhiro, Ngāti Tahinga, Pākehā) is Te Pouarataki mō te hīkoi —Treaty guide.

Please pray with me that our Hui ā Māori 2024 will be a time of encouragement for Baptist Māori.

Our agenda is very full, and together we will prayerfully engage in koorero and waananga as we navigate through some significant kaupapa. Would you also reach out to Māori in your contexts so they are aware of this upcoming hui?

We look forward to new opportunities and engaging with the next chapter of our Baptist Māori story. We urge you to prayerfully prioritise this hui and join us for this significant time in our Baptist movement. 

There is no greater time than now to be unified as Māori.
