Aboriginal Evangelical Fellowship

The Aboriginal Evangelical Fellowship is formed in the late-1960s. It is the product of Aboriginal leaders influenced by AIM who want to take ownership in forming a Black Christian movement. Pastor David Kirk at Singleton Bible College and Rev Bill Bird at Moree react against the limits of AIM’s Indigenous training structure. They help to found an evangelical alliance solely run by Aboriginal leaders in 1970. (Long. In the Way Of His Steps, 1936; Inkpin, "Making Their Gospel Known, 14).
