OUR STORY

4BP BRAVES was established in 2023, emerging from our brother and sisters ministry Hoodzpah 274. We acknowledge the leadership of Tumau whose guidance and lessons have helped shape our foundation and direction.

We debuted at Adult Camp and that was the beginning of the journey. 

From day one, we’ve continued to praise the Lord for every opportunity to extend His Kingdom. Everything we’ve been able to do has only been possible because He goes before us and leads everything we do.

THE JOURNEY SO FAR

Over the past three years, we’ve been blessed to:

  • Attend multiple sports camps
  • Launch The Bravest Club and facilitated 30+ sessions
  • Run 20+ Scripture & Sport sessions
  • Started our Park Outreach in Dawson 274
  • Relaunch Sons of Ōtara (Tangaroa College 1st Xlll)
  • Dropped 2 Instagram series #Fearless #ToBeContinued
  • Release frequent BRAVES Clothing. drops 

OUR HEART

Our main thing remains the same.

The message will never change.

We are here to SHARE THE GOSPEL!

Using sport as the vehicle, but always focused on the person behind it all.

TO GOD BE THE GLORY

We don’t take credit for any of this. Every door opened, Every young person reached, Every opportunity given.

All glory belongs to Him.

John 16:4

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

1 Corinthians 15:3-4

For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures,
