love tasmania
Our desire is to see teams from all over Australia and the nations come to Tasmania and join us in spreading the love of God to every person in every town. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to encounter God’s love and we want to see all of Tasmania encounter the goodness of God.
There are many needs and a lot of rejection on this small island. We want people to know that God has chosen them, He is calling them to a place of belonging in His family and they are not rejected.
We started this journey in April 2012 and as of January 2019 we have ministered in every single town across Tasmania! But we aren’t stopping there – we believe that God has so much more in store for Tasmania.
In 2021, we have been focusing on 60 towns. In each town we spend time reading a portion of the Bible, interceeding, worshipping, and evangelising.
niko
Niko is a ministry of King’s Kids International. Niko is a word that means to conquer, to overcome, or to pereservere until the end.
It is a leadership training program where you take risks to discover more about who God has made you to be. Your learning environment will be the great outdoors, the classroom of life. You will learn skills vital to working as a team, being a leader, and pushing yourself beyond limits you thought you could never overcome.
As an individual or a group you learn to surrender your individual rights and learn new levels of interdependence with others. The most important aspect is to grow in your dependence on God.
The program takes you into a process of experiences and growth. It is not an ordinary adventure camp or a survival camp which aims to have great performance. It is a life-changing experience that allows you to grow in your understanding of God and yourself.
Bible Distribution
Together, let’s end Bible poverty! Partnering with the local church and other teams, we want to distribute or at least offer a Bible to every home in Tasmania.
2021 is a special year for Sorell and five other towns, because it marks the 200th anniversary of the naming of our town. We feel that this is significant for what God is doing in Tasmania; while we celebrate the historical naming of our town, we will also be celebrating God’s “naming” of our town and our state as His. We want all of Tasmania to know and receive what God has done for us. That’s why we partnered with Bible Society Australia to print 10,000 copies of our custom Bible, No Greater Love.
We have knocked on every door in our local town Sorell, as well as Ross, Perth, Campbell Town, Oatlands, and Brighton. So far, we have distributed over 6,000 Gospels of Luke!
