Indigenous Ministry
Orientation & Field Training
The AAOM Indigenous Ministry Training is a prerequisite in becoming an AAOM Missionary along with the completion of the World Harvest Institute course and attendance of an Effective Aboriginal Ministry Seminar.
AAOM Indigenous Ministry Training is based at our AAOM training centre in the first instance, and then in one of our AAOM training churches across Australia, under the oversight of the National Coordinator/Board and the local indigenous pastors.
The course is 12 months of cultural orientation and field training in the local church and is made up of practical and leadership ministry to equip those who have a desire for reaching and discipling Aboriginal people.
In the last 20 years, 35 people have completed the AAOM 12 month training and many are still in fulltime ministry, and 10 new Aboriginal churches have been planted in cities, towns and remote communities.
"We have witnessed countless times the irreplaceable value of the AAOM Indigenous Ministry Training; the evidence showing that 93% of those who complete the training (Indigenous and non-Indigenous) have had and still are experiencing success in effectively
ministering in their calling and discipleship of Aboriginal people".
