Your Mission, Should You Choose To Accept It…

Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 1, 2015

Our mission, should we choose to accept it, is to proclaim the good news of the kingdom to our world today. That does not mean that we have to seek an active role in ministry. We are all given gifts from God to use in our mission.

Today, we are celebrating two special occasions in the life of our Diocese-Mission Sunday, and Anglican Church Women Sunday. Rev. Judy is celebrating Missions Sunday with another church in our Diocese this morning, as she has been asked to explain to that congregation what her role as a ...read more

You Can Just Fill In The Blanks

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 27, 2008

The work of Christ is not complete until we fill in the blanks of justice not yet done, kindness not yet given, and witness not yet shared. He wants our very cores.

To do anything these day, you have to fill out a form. Have you noticed? To get anywhere with anything you want to do, you have to fill out an application. Some of you have been job-hunting. So what happens? You go to the personnel office, you pull out your beautifully polished resume, the one ...read more

From The Manger To The Mission. A Christmas-To-New-Years Message Series

Contributed by William Akehurst on Dec 26, 2025

The Christ we celebrate at Christmas is the King who calls us forward into a transformed life. As the new year dawns, GOD invites His people to move from celebration to consecration - abandoning what no longer aligns with His purposes to step into the new season of obedience, renewal, and mission.
