5 Marks of Mission Lent Course 2023
During Lent this year, our church family will be considering the 5 Marks of Mission.
proposed but the Anglican Communion in 1984 the 5 marks: Tell, Teach, Tend, Transform, Treasure together characterise how rooted we are in the person of Jesus Christ.
The 5 marks of mission stem from the 5 wounds (hands, feet, back, head & side) that were inflicted upon Jesus during his passion and crucifixion.
Jesus us invites us to follow him as ‘the body of Christ’ on earth. If as churches we are to follow him faithfully, then these 5 marks of mission should be visible.
