What is the World Misson Focus?
The work of the Mission Interest Group at Christ Church is driven by our belief that there is one global Church, united by “one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all” (Eph. 4:5-6). Divisions by nationality, social status or denomination – despite their present reality – are meaningless and irrelevant in Christ Jesus: all are one in Him (Gal. 3:28). For this reason, the Church is united both in suffering and in rejoicing (1 Cor. 12:26).
Every two months we will choose one country which will be the focus of our attention during the following weeks. We will hand out information and prayer resources to groups and individuals at Christ Church. Our goal is to inform people about missions in general and the work of our mission partners in particular. We would like to share stories of the lives of our brothers and sisters around the world and encourage prayer on their behalf. It is our sincere wish to see Christ Church united in support and prayer for missions and the global Church.
