|| Being true to who we are as people. ||
This week on Episode 103 of the #ReadswithRosaPodcast, I sit down for a chat with Rev Martin and Toreka Mariota from EFKS Magele i Sisifo. We chat about the work of PASG (Pasifika Autism Support Group), their family’s contribution to the new book ‘vĀsifika: Our Autism Journeys’, and how they are utilizing social media to share their son Joziah’s Autism journey. We also discuss the importance of being your authentic self over the pressure of having to conform, their understanding of ‘the calling’ and why one’s ‘Ministry’ begins in the home, as well as their own reflections on their spiritual journey with their church family, as they get closer to marking one year since they were called to serve in Mangere, South Auckland.
