About Us
Inspired by the extraordinary legacy of Reverend Graham and Iris Paulson, pioneers who bridged Aboriginal, South Sea Islander, and Baptist communities in Australia, we carry forward their spirit of service through thoughtful storytelling and cultural preservation. Based in Meanjin (Brisbane), we believe every Elder’s story is a precious gift of wisdom that enriches our shared heritage and connects generations. Join us in honouring your Elders’ legacy – together, we can preserve these vital narratives that weave the fabric of our diverse communities and create lasting positive change for generations to come.
Why document elders’ stories?
In our fast-paced, modern world, the wisdom of elders can often go unnoticed. Documenting legacy stories isn’t just about preserving the past—it’s a powerful way to build a stronger future. Stories passed down from parents and grandparents are woven with resilience, values, and culture, serving as invaluable guides for the next generations.
Recording an elder’s life story offers profound benefits. It allows families to deepen their connections, learn from past experiences, and keep cultural traditions alive. Documenting parents’ stories brings families closer, creating shared memories and celebrating a life well-lived.
Whether you’re creating a digital tribute, a family memory book, or simply capturing stories through conversations, the act of storytelling itself is transformative. By participating in this journey, you’re honouring your loved ones and ensuring their legacy lives on, inspiring future generations to appreciate their roots.
Core Values
Your pathway to documenting elders’ legacy.
We start with our parents story, Reverend Graham and Iris Paulson. We wanted to share elements of their life journey with communities who have shared in their story and development as Australian Indigenous leaders, christians and elders and parents. We hope to share our documentation journey with others as we celebrate their life and impact and prepare a closing ceremony that honours their character and contribution.
Work with us
Our purpose is to help you honor your elders by capturing their precious stories, celebrating their wisdom, and creating lasting tributes with dignity. From life stories to closing ceremonies, we’re here to support your journey.
