Empower

The Empower Stream is dedicated to extending Jesus's love and compassion throughout our broader community by addressing physical, and emotional needs of vulnerable individuals.

Our primary goal within this Stream is to equip and empower students with a diverse range of spiritual, administrative, and operational skills. Ultimately, we aim to instill in students the understanding that every action they take is in service to Jesus, in accordance with Matthew 25:34-40.

Participation in the Empower internship provides students with involvement in various community initiatives and programs:

Empower Operations

Students will have the opportunity for practical engagement in the logistical, inventory, and operational functions of our food relief centre. These tasks, crucial for Sunday operations, primarily occur on Friday mornings.

Sunday Operations

Students gain hands-on experience in inventory and operational aspects of our food relief centre, with opportunities for outreach and evangelism to visitors at Empower.

Corporate Program

Students participate in the corporate program, where individuals from various organisations serve with us every Friday. They may act as hosts, providing guidance and assistance to corporate participants to enhance their experience.

Street Team Program

Incorporates a variety of social activities such as BBQs throughout the year, this seeks to address social isolation—a common precursor to mental health issues and negative behavioural patterns.

English Classes

Students predominantly participate in a program customized for international students, to enhance communication skills and nurture community engagement.

Marketing Team

Students assist with graphic design, content creation, copywriting, and photography for our marketing team on both Fridays and Sundays.

Projects and Administrative Tasks

Students contribute to generating new projects for Empower Australia's growth and development. Additionally, they support administrative tasks on Fridays based on their capacity and abilities.

*Fun fact: We don’t have a million followers on instagram but we gave a million meals in 11 months!
