Message from the National Administrator

Rev Shayne Blackman

Welcome to the Uniting Aboriginal and Islander Christian Congress.  We are an organisation developed and managed by Indigenous people for whom we have the immense privilege to serve.  From our beginnings in 1985 our desire has always been to provide spiritual, social and economic pathways for Australia's First People. 

Aside from holistic ministry, Congress runs a range of progressive and culturally appropriate programs.  These address Indigenous aspirations and concerns.  The map indicates where Congress is currently operating.  For specific information about Congress congregations and their activities and Congress incorporated bodies simply click on the respective dots. 

We warmly welcome and invite you to journey with us - on what we believe has been, and continues to be one part of God's plan for the First Peoples of this Nation.

Yours in Christ
