02 / The Why

A Generation is moving from Inspiration to Activation — From Here Am I to Send Me

1

The Mandate

Many believers love Jesus but are not actively engaged in evangelism or mission.

Only 10% of Australian Christians are actively engaged with an Evangelistic or missional initiative.
This can change now!
2

The Mission

Real mission fields are waiting now.

  • Schools need Bible teachers and Gospel witness.
  • 42 universities and over 1 million students need Gospel movements.
  • Neighbourhoods are ready for relational evangelism and care.
  • Vulnerable children need Christian families and ministries to respond.
  • Roughly 2 billion people globally have never heard the name of Jesus.
3

The Momentum

Since 2023, leaders have been praying, listening, and preparing for The Send Australia.

Pastors & Leaders from across Australia sought the Lord and felt a STRONG YES, that it is time for The Send.
“The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.” — Matthew 9:37
03 / The Vision

Every believer activated into their missional and Evangelistic calling

The Send Australia exists to gather, activate, and send believers into practical mission through the local church and trusted ministry partners.

Not just an event.
A national activation pipeline.

Gather believers around worship, prayer, Gospel proclamation, and the Great Commission.

Activate real-time responses through clear calls to action.

Send people into mission fields through churches and vetted partners.
