Ngā Pou Amorangi is like an armour. I love the whanaungatanga. I love the way we come together and have karakia and waiata. I love being amongst young up and coming Māori and they inspire me! Ngā Pou Amorangi is strengthening my faith, strengthening my understanding which is enabling me to do what we do here at the Marae: to continue to bring wellness to our people, to create God spaces and to continue oranga wairua and to foster leadership.”
