EPHATA – Word of Life and Reconciliation is a French-language radio programme for refugee and migrant communities. Grounded in Christian faith, it shares messages of God’s love, hope, peace and encouragement for people navigating displacement, resettlement and new beginnings in New Zealand. Through interviews and personal testimonies, former refugees and migrants can share their journeys, challenges and experiences of change. The programme promotes healing, forgiveness, mutual understanding and reconciliation, including between people once divided by conflict. It also shares useful news, opportunities and resources for refugee and migrant communities in the Waikato. EPHATA encourages listeners to hold on to hope, build positive relationships and help create a peaceful, inclusive and compassionate society.
