Bula Vinaka!
Jesus commissioned his followers to ‘go and make disciples of all nations’ (Matthew 28:19) and to be his ‘witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth’ (Acts 1:8). There are many ways we can express our commitment to take the gospel to the nations. We can pray, we can give, and we can intentionally reach people from other nations here in Aotearoa. However, not many students ever take up the opportunity to be part spreading the gospel outside of their home country by physically going.
WHY FIJI?
Fiji is a country of nearly 1 million people, and it’s known for being a Christian nation. But did you know that 1/3 of the population of Fiji is Hindu and the fastest growing religion there is Islam? We want to be part of taking the gospel to all of Fiji.
We will join with other Navigators in Fiji from the main island Viti Levu and Vanua Levu in the North. We will connect with people in the community along with university students.
Activities will include building relationships with students on campuses, engaging in conversations about the Bible and the gospel. Additionally, you will dedicate time to serving the Hindi-speaking and Muslim community, working side by side on an organic farm, addressing everyday needs to demonstrate the love of Christ. Our hope is that you will be eager to be a part of the work the Lord is already undertaking and will continue to do in Fiji.
We will trust God to use us to encourage our Fijian brothers & sisters, encounter different beliefs, grow in our handle on the Bible, learn to share the gospel boldly with others, and spend some fun time on the beaches of Fiji as well. Will you prayerfully consider joining us as we take the gospel to Fiji during winter break in 2025?
