NAIM is a nondenominational faith mission serving in coastal villages, interior communities and urban cities primarily across Western Canada, Washington State, and New Mexico.

There are various ministry venues, and much creative freedom in staff's approach to bringing the love and good news of Jesus Christ to the First Nation peoples.

Discipleship Trips

In a village or a city... for a summer or a career. If you feel the Lord is calling you to step out into Native ministry, please drop us an email. We would count it a privilege to hear from you, and be a part of God's plan for your life!
