NAIDOC Week

NAIDOC Week 2020

NAIDOC Week celebrations will be recognised from 8-15 November this year. The theme for 2020 – “Always Was, Always Will Be” – celebrates the truth that First Nations people have occupied and cared for this continent for over 65,000 years. NAIDOC Week 2020 invites all Australians to embrace the true history of this country – a history which dates back thousands of generations.

The Mission Resources and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Teams have created a toolkit to help you and your corps celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

• Tuesday 10th November: Always Was, Always Will Be - An Aboriginal Pastors Perspective. Special guest: Uncle Ray Minniecon
• Sunday 15th November: Weaving Workshop. Presented by: Sue Hodges with special guest Safina Stewart
