 Our
vision is to meet as Native and Non-native
people in our area to learn together how to worship God and witness
for Jesus Christ in culturally appropriate ways.
The "Gathering" will be
relationally oriented—it will focus on true fellowship with
God and each other.
Our Gatherings will emphasize the
centrality of Jesus Christ and His Word but also celebrate expressions
of faith in Him which are distinctly Native in structure, style, and
philosophy. This means that we will share a meal, utilize native
music/worship, pray, tell stories and learn and use languages.

Although we don't have a special
program for children, they are welcome to participate.
Pray for us as we seek the Lord
for wisdom and direction to put this into practice. Our
Gatherings are the second Wednesday evening of every other month and
begin at 6 P.M.

"Healing the Land"
The mission of Inuit Ministry
International is to present every freedom available by salvation,
deliverance and healing in the Lord, Jesus Christ. We believe that
God, the Creator, endowed the First Nations People with
significant gifts and responsibilities as stewards of the land,
providing broad avenues for the Holy Spirit to bring revival to
the nations. We actively seek to evangelize, encourage, and
challenge them to receive Christ and become servants to His word.
Where First Nations culture and practice honors God, I.M.I.
endorses and encourages its growth. Where the culture and
practice forsake God and promotes its own spiritual agenda, I.M.I.
remains faithful to God's Word.
