​

The name Neema is a Swahili word meaning Grace. It was coiled from Ephesians 2:8-9 which over years has been the church’s key Bible verse. The vision of Neema goes beyond reaching the Kenyan community within Perth, it is international. Driven by the Great Commission, our mission is to reach the many nationalities living within Perth and beyond with the Gospel of Christ to grow spiritually and to be true ambassadors of Christ. Moreover, we intend to offer missionary support to those living in Australia and Africa.
