As Christians, we are shaped by the stories and promises of what God has done before us. God has been at work in this country forever and the Treaty has a rich Christian heritage. We can look at the story of the Treaty and how it was signed, and let that shape how we live in this land.
But do we actually know what the Treaty says? Why Māori chiefs and the Crown signed it? What happened after?
Now is a great time to refresh our understanding and plug our knowledge gaps so that we can participate meaningfully in these conversations. We are inviting you and your faith community to join us in exploring these questions, and come on an exciting journey of curiosity, learning and conversation.
