Helping Churches Transform Neighbourhoods

 

Jesus told us all to love our neighbour, and that's exactly what NAYBA helps churches to do.

We are a network of Christians from across the breadth of the Australian Church with a vision to see the Body of Christ come together in complete unity to serve those in need and help transform our communities, cities and the nation.

Good News Deserves To Be Shared

Share Your Story

As Christians, we're often asked: “How is the Church actually making a difference?” We know we’re called to love our neighbour as ourselves and, across our nation, there are countless examples of local churches and everyday Christians doing just that.

But how do we capture and quantify the ways that faith is having a positive impact in the community? How do we celebrate the ‘good news of the good works’ of the Church, while also identifying gaps and opportunities to even better serve people in need?

We want to tell a new story about what it means to be a follower of Jesus and we need your help. Get in touch with us now and share the good works of your church or ministry.

NAYBA Impact Audit

Læs mere

NAYBA har udviklet et værktøj til at måle og formidle den fælles sociale indsats udført af trossamfund og trosbaserede organisationer i en by eller en region. Vi kalder det NAYBA Impact Audit.

NAYBA Danmark har for netop gennemført en sådan undersøgelse i Aarhus, og resultaterne viser, at de trosbaserede fællesskaber har et stort hjerte for byen og dens borgere. Dette ses både ud af antallet af indsatser, der adresserer aktuelle sociale udfordringer, samt det fortsatte engagement på områder, der er helt centrale for lokalsamfundet.

NAYBA IMPACT AUDIT

Through the NAYBA Impact Audit we help to measure the social impact value of the Church in community – putting numbers to the stories of how local churches are serving those in need, and opening doors to government and other sectors.

We have recently conducted audits in Whitehorse (VIC), Penrith & Mt Druitt (NSW), Illawarra (NSW) and Frankston (VIC) with many more still to come!
