Acknowledgement of Country

We are here . . .

 

We are here because of God’s grace.
It’s through God’s love and grace that we acknowledge the first nations peoples on whose land we meet.
We acknowledge their care for country,  land, oceans and waters.
We acknowledge  elders past, present and future.
We acknowledge past injustices.
And we acknowledge the need through Jesus and with Jesus to work towards conciliation.

 


Tasmanian Baptists’ acknowledgment of country is written by Paul Dare,  a “proud” indigenous Lia Pootah man.
Paul was born in Wynyard and grew up in Myalla. He has been an electronics technician, aerospace engineer, army officer and pastor.
