About me:
I hail from the south pacific island of Tonga and love serving God daily. I started youth working in South Auckland back in 2016, throughout my journey I have gained tools to better my practice and I hope to share these tools and experiences with others.
I share my lived experience as a former bikie and drug user, to give others a better understanding of what some maybe going through in that moment of their life, as some of us as youth workers may come across this within the communities we serve in. Look forward to connecting soon.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding: in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3:5-6
